Hey guys…so unfortunately, I have some bad news. I'm not allowed to do any writing all summer long, which means I won't be able to update all summer. I'm sorry. My mom wants to help me with my writing so, she's keeping me from writing all summer and has me on this reading list of all kinds of different genres and writing styles and after I read something I have to report on it. Anyway, bottom line is, as I said I won't be able to update for a long time. It's only been like two weeks and I'm already struggling with wanting to write. However I do have a poem I wrote, my last piece of work before I was cut off. I will most likely be using it in future chapters of this fanfic, I'll either have to tweak it to fit the characters more specifically or only use parts of it, but at this point I am planning on using it to some degree. Also, I would still love for you guys to review, tell me what your fav part of the story has been so far and why, or give suggestions to where I should go from here, whatever it is, reviews really would be appreciated.

Alright here's the poem

The Mask

My dear, there's something I really need to tell you

Be careful of that mask you have

I know you think its fine

That it's better

Than facing all that pain and brokenness

Once the storms pass

Then you'll take it off

But I know the truth

And It's killing me to see you this way

You see it's really so much more than that

Something so easy to put on

Can be hard to take off

I know you're afraid that it'll crack

And someone might see through it

And that you just might lose your grip and lose everything

But hun, that's not the worst of it

You're so busy keeping strong

That you can't even see

That it's taken over you

Beware the mask and all its power

Less you become its newest victim

For what you see is what you get

When pretending becomes a lifestyle

And the mask is all you know

And when you start to wonder why

The person in the mirror

Is so completely unfamiliar

It's too late

The battles done and over

Now all that's left are consequences

How long can you keep it up?

You start to ask

How many fake smiles are left

How many time can I laugh without feeling joy

When can I set aside this mask and be done

When can I be free again

But the truth is that mask ain't never coming off

You put it on yourself, and yeah you weathered the storm

And now that mask is here to stay and no one knows who you are anymore

Is it worth it?

To spend eternity

As someone as some else

Just to get through another day

I could say a hundred words

And cry a thousand tears

To try and show you how beautiful you are

To tell you that you path your going down isn't going to give you what you want

But in the end the choice is yours.

And all I can do, is tell you, how you were meant for better things

and do my best to warn you

Of all the dangers inside that mask you're holding in your hands

Well, hope you guys liked it, with that, I must say goodbye for now! See you again once summer is over!
