My Mask

My mask is bright
It helps me love and laugh
Friends, they protect me through thick and thin
Family, they adore me

My mask is dark
It helps me write and think
Friends, they respect me at a distance
Family, they ignore me
I, like me

My mask is fading
It helped me but hated me
Friends, they don't see me why would they
Family, they don't care
I, don't exhist
