Bravery mask
I am brave
I wait for you
You are a constant thought
As the sun remembers to set and rise
I remember to wear my mask
I mask my pain as the clouds mask the sun
I mask my cries and quivering lip
Our memories together fade
They only seem like a dream
Come back to me please
I need you.
I need you.
I forgot your voice
I forgot your love
I forgot your face
Do you still match the pictures I see?
Have you changed since our happy memories?
I am strong
I am brave
I hold it in
I do not wrap for loss of contact
I do not wrap for lack of privacy to our short visits
I wear my mask
I am trapped behind a lying face
This mask was meant for them
"Everything is fine"
My face was meant for you
"Stay with me every time my heart beats"
Your not here
Why are they here!?
You
Are
Not
Here
I need you
