Everything feels so wrong,

nothing’s quite the same,

everything’s so different,

but no one is to blame.

 

It’s how it’s meant to be,

but all the same it’s wrong,

it’s just a different tune,

and a slightly different song.

 

I don’t like the way it is,

but there’s nothing I can do,

I’ll have to stick it out,

until we see it through.

Masked.

Masked. (Photo credit: .Andi.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hold it all in,

and bottle it up,

emotions subdued,

with a stiff upper lip.

Stifle emotions,

wear that fake mask,

choke back the tears,

and get on with the task.
