perfect mask

her shirt was like her armor,
her makeup was her mask,
they protected her just like they could,
and hey, that was that.
outside such a perfect girl,
but inside she was crumbling down,
sadness and numbness crushing her up,
until she was just a pile of dust.
her perfect mask appeared intact, however,
it soon would start to crack,
revealing the messed up girl she was inside.
