In the midst of the night, while the whole Earth sleeps. <br />The heart of this girl still weeps in its wake. <br />The sound of the sobs, cutting through the silence of the night. <br />The sound of despair will stop only with the light. <br />For when the morning comes, a little smile will show, <br />Putting the mask of happiness to hide the face of sorrow.<br /><br />diana rose tolentino<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/behind-the-mask-22/
