I saw you again, you're still wearing that mask to cover those scars, wounds and tears. I asked you why are you wearing that? You don't want to look weak? "yes, and also because I don't want the world to see me like this, I don't want them to pity me."

Everyday you smile and laugh with your friends like you don't have any problems at all. "I don't think anyone will understand me, i'm complicated".

I Stood up and then I saw my reflection. Who am I kidding? Why am I even talking to myself? I can't even understand myself sometimes.

Everyone thinks that i'm so happy with my life that it was perfect. But the truth is no, i'm not okay, i'm dying inside. I'm tired of showing those fake emotions, i'm tired of wearing different masks because the truth is I am empty. I tried saving other people from their problems, I don't want them to be like me. I came to a point that i'm just way too tired to even talked about it. Not literally tired but mentally and emotionally. I can't give up, not yet, not right now. I will keep wearing this mask if this is the only thing that can help me survive.
