A porcelain mask.
Cracked and marred,
Smiling.
Hollow and atrificial.
Occluding the truth beneath.
Shrouding beauty,
Terrified of the light.
And resigned to shadow.
What we all hide behind.

Very interesting poem. I can relate to it a little bit when it comes to hiding something behind a smile sometimes. :P

Great work. ^_^
