Literature Text

Tears are imperfections,
They melt away my mask.
Destroy all my carful work,
Leaving me holding a few soggy pieces of paper.

I am the ice queen,
I must be the ice queen.
Emotions must be banished,
Any feeling showcases my weaknesses.

You must leave me here,
I cannot be saved from myself.
One day I shall end my pain,
Behind my slowly melting mask.
One day...

Sometimes, crying is a greater sign of strength than hiding it all. Because it means you are strong enough to look for help.
This is a great piece. It flows really well.
