Sometimes the mask cracks

Catch it in time,

 and you can gracefully turn away.

Now, 

   and again,

     you just retreat into the shadow.

There is not always a choice.

Then,

   let them watch your face be revealed.

and sometimes we don't even realize we are letting our guard down...showing our real self...

but that shadow doesn't come fast enough.

Thank you, sir. Grasping at the shadows tonight.
