Unmasking the past

Time to stop living my life
Trying to convince them
They make judgments based
On one side of the page
Without bothering to be sure
I’m tired of caring what
Others think
What they assume and perceive
I won’t shed another tear
That’s only letting them win
The past tries to haunt me
But I’m no scared anymore
It’s time to stop running
And face this head on
See behind the smoke and
Mirrors
And finally unmask it
I’ll only listen to the ones I love
Because they’re all that matter
