The Mirror

There is a secret melody,

That nobody else can see,

Like a stranger in the night,

When nothing seems to be right.

If you look at it in a glance,

We all seek for certain balance,

But there is so much more,

That future holds for us in store.

What the heart is about to yell,

The head refuses to tell,

Makeup might be able to cover tears,

But can it also take away the fears?

It might not make much sense,

But increases your confidence,

For everyone else to see,

What you pretend to be.

The more difficult task,

Is putting down the mask,

Opening up to someone else,

Without ignoring the alarm bells.
