My Own Cinderella
January 16, 2015
Time stands still,
then it’s ticking away.
What will happen in the morning?
Will you fade away?
The clock strikes midnight,
but what will I do?
That’s when I change,
and will no longer be with you.
What would you do
if you knew that real me?
How would you feel?
If only I could let you see.
Nobody knows, and no one will.
They don’t understand
why time stands still.
They don’t get why I hide myself.
They don’t see
just why you can’t know the real me.
But if you find out,
will you see through the mask?
