Rabbit

My smile is only on the surface

Can you see what lies beneath

The pain I live with every day

Not even the mirror can hide

Cursed is what I am

No woman I care for can ever hug me

Their loving embrace I am not aloud

So I pretend

I pretend it doesn't hurt

I pretend that I am the same

I laugh and sing

In hopes of making others and myself believe

In truth my laughter is hollow

Tears fall down my face at times

Those tears that are often mistaken for joy

Are really tears of pain

My own mother chose to forget who I was

A demon is what she called me

Her memories were to much for her to handle

So now she no longer remembers

If my own mother couldn't love me

What are the chances another woman can

Because if she gets to close

I'll go

POOF!

And a rabbit will appear

Normally followed by a great deal of fear.
