Masks

Boys attract girls by looks,

Girls see muscles and eyes,

All looks great as they think “hey a good guy,”

It starts normal,

Pizza, movies, studying, pep-rallies, and parties,

Time goes on,

Her newness wears off as his mask falls away,

Now he does not call or take her out as much,

A night out with the girls is what she needs,

She goes out only to find a new girl on his arm,

Not to make a scene she leaves,

A few days later they argue as she calls him out on his cheating,

He says nothing as his fist connects to her face,

Now through her mask of make-up she sees him without his mask
