Cracks Unmasked

     Bleed through me darkness as I become unveiled.

     The beast behind the Mask uncovered, shedding her totured shell.

     Underneath the mask she's hidden; demons.        in the cracks.

     Tattered plaster the shield for the mistakes she can't take back.

     They pull at her, tease, and taunt with mercy to no degree.

     She's fighting back, combative; all to hide the things that you can't see. 

     Billowing in madness their eyes stab like the sharpest knives.

     The mask ripped to shreds and now she's...
                      Empty.

                      Naked.

      To the world with fear she can't deny.
