My Mask

My mask
I’ve worn it so long I’ve forgotten what it looked like 
I’ve forgotten what I look like 
I've forgotten who the hell I am 
Who I was 
Who I want to be 

Everyone in my life has seen my mask
I’ve learned to wear it well 
Few have seen beyond it 
And only those few know my secrets 
My deepest secrets
But even they haven't seen it all 

There’s a mask in every part of my life 
At home
In school
With family 
Everywhere
I have a mask 
I wear a mask 

Most people don’t even realize it's there 
They don't realize that the me they see 
Is not the me inside 
They don't know the dreams I feel I’m losing 
They don't know the darkness that lives in my mind 
They don't know the life I've lost
They don't know anything 

And I feel that no one does 
No one knows how deep my secrets go 
The dark places my mind can wander if I don't control it 
They don't know anything 

And I’m beginning to realize that I don't either

the curse of my birthday

It’s back  The darkness is back  The need to sit in a dark room and cry has returned  The need to nothing but wallow in sorrows  I wanted nothing more than to spend the weekend with my friends  To enjoy their company  To celebrate my 21st birthday  But the curse has reared its ugly head again The curse that brought about many dark times on my birthday  It never fails  It comes in the form of weather normally  But this year it wants to curse me this way  It wants me to sit alone in a dark room  Crying for friendship and company  It wants me to see just how lonely I am  To force me to see that I have no control  And everything in my life is doomed to be destroyed in a flood of tears  I hate my birthday  I hate it with a passion now  I used to wonder why people hated their birthdays  But I get it now  It means nothing more than another year of pai...

Have We Pressed the Reset Button?

I watched a film today  ‘What Happened to Monday’ It focused on how the human race will eventually over populate and be forced into two ultimatums Death  Or belated death  I don’t know why But it now has me thinking Thinking of how many times has our world been reset and we just don’t know it Thinking of how many civilizations of the human race have there been that have obliterated their own world and forced it to regrow anew Thinking of how many years there may truly be in the universe’s history No one knows the full history of the world because maybe there is more to it than we thought Science believes that our world started with the dinosaurs, But could this be true?  Could there be an entire story before ours, billions of years before we believe it to be? Could there have been a world like our own?  A present world full of new inventions everyday Of free minded people who follow their dreams  A world so perfect and pea...
