Masked dolls

put on your everyday mask

Smiling, giggling

Whispering secret words

Laughing, having fun

Leaving work

 

Hugging, kissing

Erotic gestures made

Preparing dinner, eating

Sit in front of the television

 

Watching, thinking

Pondering about the end

Deliberating, guessing together

Time to sleep

 

Talking, reflecting

Clarifying your day

Waiting, crying

Hide your fears

 

Tossing, dreaming

Waking up

Preparing, put on your mask

A world of dolls

I love these lines:
"Tossing, dreaming
Waking up
Preparing, put on your mask
A world of dolls "

You have done a good job....

Tossing? innocence shattered.
We all wear masks because if we don't we'll be maskless in a lonely world. We wear masks to impress, to hide, to comfort those we don't like and so on. But there are masks and then there are masks.
We can keep a glimmer of ourselves. Some masks hide more than others. More fake than others. We can keep ourselves in our hearts and not give up our pet likes and hates. My friends look at my CD collection and always say. "why do you have that rubbish?" But they always point to different CDs...
Life is mixed and lets enjoy it even if its a mixture of masks.

this is so true.

ya know people sit there and say "i hate fake people" "i hate people who act differently depending on who they are around" blah blah blah...the truth is......we all act different around everyone. ...because everyone is different. you react one way to one person and one way to another person. you maybe be someone else around one person but another way around someone else. because you are interacting with different people. ...you don't necessarily change WHO you are around those people you just act and react according to the people and environment you are in. and i think this is true. ...we do wear masks. and i think everyone has MANY different masks. ...we wear masks to cover our feelings and to hide things we dont want the world to know.
