There is a mask over my face to block out the world <br />to keep all that may cause harm away <br />I am scared to be hurt <br />I have been hurt in the past <br />It made me stronger <br />but not strong enough <br />To block out my emotions <br />from prying eyes <br />they think im strong but it is only a mask <br />I dont want them to see if they broke me <br />my emotions will stay hidden for a wile <br />till im brave enough to show them again<br /><br />Tara Jones<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mask-24/
