THE MASK

Everyday I step out of house
With a masked face
Life changed a lot
Since I masked

When I am all alone
I unmask myself
A strange face reflects on the glass
Guilt and grief stricken face

I still remember the day
Running away to hide myself
From my real self
That day,I stumbled over this mask

The mask being invisible
People easily got deceived of my false look
So,everyday I deceived people
With my masked face

But I am living in constant fear
That people would recognise my masked face
And unmask me infront of the huge crowd
My heart shrink in terror and shame

The people may fail
But there is ONE who never fail
One day,every masked face would be unmasked
For eternal shame and pain
