?!?!?!?


Reflection


You look
But you don't see
You touch
But you don't feel
You think
But you don't know

Who I am
What I am
Beneath this mask
Every day
It covers my face

Every thought
Each emotion
And intention
They hide behind
My mask

My life,
Me
It is all a masquerade
All you see
All you feel
It is false
A lie

For you have chosen to stay
Within the darkness you will lye
To never see the truth
Is your gift
Your one true god given prayer

Oblivious, ignorant
All your sins
Your curse
I have chosen a lie
But you live it

Remove my mask
You will see
Behind the lie
Is a mirror for all to see
