We wear the mask that grins and lies

Every person has a mask. Most people have a tendency to be fake. No one wants to have people believe their lives are anything less than perfect. They drive around their shiny new Mercedes Benz, with their hair done, new clothes, and their mask. They hope their sorrow, despair, and lack of perfection will stay under the radar. Even when they have a slip-up and someone asks “What’s wrong?” they then respond with a plastered on fake smile and reply with the same sugar coated lies. They falsely assure them that “Nothing is Wrong”. People in this world go out of their way to cover their true feelings and to escape reality. They shut out the people around them, and don’t let them help. They cause themselves more problems and sorrow by not letting anyone in. But to them it seems better this way. Once they step out of their house they put on their mask because this is how we grin and lie.
