Masquerade the heart Is the height of haunting souls Just not what you seek of me Can the heart reveal the proof Like a mirror reveals the truth See the evil one is you Is that scary for you baby

You see me the way I want you to see me
I hide my true self
I dont want to be seen by the crowd
Only a few can stand and say they know the true me
The ones I see to be true
This life gives me a lesson every passing day
The colors bloom and the stars shine
But im the only one who knows the real me
My thoughts, my anger, my joy, my dreams, and my darkest hours
One day ill let my colors flow and show the world what I really am

"Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind."
