My mask

by cassi   Nov 18, 2006


Through my mask
i hide myself
never will they truly see
the one true honest me

through my mask
i ask myself
if i become brave enough
to tell my true face show
well i be accepted

through my mask
that makes me fake
i care about everyone
wondering if they should know
who i really am and that Ive never let the real me show

through this mask
i look around
and wonder why all i do is frown
i look at the world and what its become

through my mask
each day i wait
for my fate to take its place
for the one day i feel strong enough
to let my true self show

through my mask i wonder
should i let one single soul know
that what i am now is just a lie
wondering if anyone sees the face inside
through this mask i hide

though my mask
Ive let a little show
but not enough for everyone to know
the whole me
because Ive never really been myself around anybody else

but the day i take it off
is coming soon the day i drop
i drop all the acts I've played
the day my happiness will soon be fact
the day when i reveal whats real be hide my mask
and all i ask is to be accepted

    This poem is great and I can definetly relate to it. I came out of my mask && Ive been accepted for who i am. People will love you more for the real you, than they did for the fake you. Life is too short not to be true to yourself. xxx
