A fresh start
New town
New school
New people
Everything was perfect
At least that’s what it seemed
It was unlike anything I’ve ever dreamed of
The highs were higher than ever
But the lows
Were unexplainable and even painful
People wore masks, they caused that pain
Targeting the weakest points
Only the strong ones
survived the lows
I survived that lows
And I found out who my true friends were
Ones who didn’t wear a mask
Ones who picked me up
And reminded me of my worth
Showed me a new kind of high
An unforgettable experience
