Masks


Oh I'm so proud!
Of the masks I wear
Everyday to deceive
The people who believe

That things are in everyway
All that they see
And think that everything
Is the way they think it should be

Oh what fun!
To pretend to smile
When smiling is not
What my heart desires

Oh what joy!
To cry and wail
When all I wanted to do
Was touch your hair

To look extremely hurt
And push food aside
While my heart was swollen
With extreme pride

Sometimes a mad face
Works best I find
When sitting in buses
With people close behind

Oh you'll never guess!
How good I've come to be
In wearing masks
That even deceives me.
