Layers of make up cover the truth
a past that most don't see
Scared of rejections and being alone
her sole never finds peace
Losing herself she paints on a face
and covers up her pain
Praying that one day someone will come
and take this all away
Pools of her sorrow form at her feet
tears smearing her disguise
Warped and confused she falls to her knees
still beautiful in his eyes.
Leading her forward and clutching her hand
he makes her laugh again
She tried not to hope its too soon to dream
that she'll find love with him
Her face basked in warmth with her smile so bright
she puts her heart on the line
She wipes of her make up, revealing herself
there is nothing left to hide
His touch is so gentle yet strangely distant
her mind is clouded with doubt
But shell wait for him to decide if he wants her
for whoever she becomes now.
