The Mask

11 Years Ago


The mask slips on so easily,
as if it were glued on over time. 
You can always become someone else.
Just make a deal with the devil; 
Pay a fine.

The mask,
it's so beautiful,
so enchanting and deceiving.
You see what you want to see,
and seeing is believing.
I must be blind.

The mask...
it fits! 
I open my eyes.
The audience is waiting, 
and up the curtain flies.
The show must go on. 

It slips off my face.
I feel so naked, so vulnerable, 
the mask no longer in place
I slip it back on;
The mask is a part of me.
The show is now over,
but here comes the tragedy. 
Identity is lost.
