--- the mask wasn't fooling anyone


This one is quite personal to me, and creating this I wanted concepts about not hiding your pain especially under a false image of happiness and contentment. Lately I've realized that even if you may think no one knows, sometimes it can't be more obvious. The mask is a message from you that just tells people to pretend everything is okay and if you're looking for help it's a way of never getting any. I mean, I still have a hard time talking about how I feel even to people really close to me, but I'm starting to change that by not pretending or acting like I don't feel the way I actually do. 

but as always, please feel free to translate this piece however you like (:

I've worn my mask for so long that, when I take it off, people run in fear at the cracked and broken creature beneath. So I keep it on and pretend that the creature is not falling apart.
