Lifted My Mask

I use to put on my mask and pretend
Pretend that I was happy on the inside
Pretend there was nothing wrong
The mask helped my depression to hide

But then you came and lifted my mask
Almost like a fairy tale
Ridded me of the pain I once carried
For you my lifted soul fell

Your essence is the fullness to my emptiness
You’ve made me complete
Your soothing soul complements my darkness
Never again will I be sent beneath

Is our dance over? Is it time to go?
Forever to be; this I know
Lift my mask, throw it aside
I am complete; I’m no longer to hide
