Mask

I was once sad and lonely, Having nobody to comfort me, So I wore a mask that always smiled, To hide my feelings behind a lie. Before long, I had many friends; With my mask, I was one of them. But deep inside I still felt empty, Like I was missing a part of me. Nobody could hear my cries at night, For I designed my mask to hide the lies. Nobody could see the pain I was feeling, For I designed my mask to be laughing. Behind all the smiles were the tears And behind all the comfort were the fears. Everything you think you see Wasn't everything there was to me. Day by day I was slowly dying. I couldn't go on, There was something missing.. Until now I'm still searching For the thing that'll stop my crying, For someone who'll erase my fears, For the person who'll wipe my tears. But till then, I'll keep on smiling. Hiding behind this mask I'm wearing. Hoping one day I can smile, Till then, I'll be here...waiting.

The Benefits Of Rejection

“You tell me.” My unrequited love and I were standing outside a party when I’d finally mustered the nerve to ask what we were. He briefly turned away, so I prompted him again. After five months of a casual…thing, of daily talk and instantly gravitating towards one another any time we found each other in the same room, he finally fessed up to what I’d suspected in the couple weeks he’d grown distant: there was someone else. He didn’t want me. This, as Lisa A. Phillips would describe — she’s the author of Unrequited: Women and Romantic Obsession and a journalism professor at SUNY New Paltz in New York — is the soft version of unrequited love. Apart from a slight cry and week-long aversion to food not covered in cheese, I let the situation be. I avoided him, really, until I felt I could be around him (and his girlfriend) again. Phillips, on the other hand, compulsively called her unrequited love B. after he’d rejected her. It all came to head when B. threatened to call the ...
