Hiding Shadows

Rock that smile.

Rock that tear 'cause everyone knows,

you live in fear.

It's not your dark 1 square cubicle with

knives sticking out of the walls not.

Allowing you to sit or lean that lit your fear.

The light burns your flesh more than

those jagged knives in the walls.

You hide behind shadows of veils you've

made with your fears of charlatan.

You claim to be fine.

You even drink some wine killing your

inner child.

You want to come out of the hiding
shadows.

But with the veil unveiled that tear you rock

from fear.

May burn your flesh exposing your bones

of lies.

So hide your shadows and paint a smile

but know that all those miles you've

walked are merely a mural .
