Emojis

Sometimes the emojis
Hide the tear
Our emoji masks
So no one can care
Because no one knows
No one can tell
Our true feelings don't show
Are we fine or unwell?

They are useful
These emojis
Can be truthful
Express clearly
But sometimes
They can hide
Beyond our imaginations
Bleeding hearts
And intense frustrations

These emojis
Our masks, our shields
Denying the truth
Or enhancing the real...

Sometimes
Yes sometimes
The emojis
Hide the tear
Our emoji masks
So no one can care
Because no one knows
No one can tell
Our true feelings don't show
Are we fine or unwell?

Our emojis...
