The Mask
A flower on the mask of comedy
hiding the sadness beneath.
Half of her porcelain white
the other checkered
with darkened thoughts
and a false smile.
Pain staring out from her eyes,
dark as the emptiness
of her withered soul.
Only she knows
what goes on within,
the world blind
to her deepest thoughts.
