Facade
I wear a mask daily
the one I put on in the morning
with the rising sun
and I am the rising sun
full of positive energy
the bright white side
of the yin and yang
the calm water of a river
during fair weather
while deep down I hide
a heart bursting
with the potential for drama
most of which is no comedy
a brooding moon in a starless sky
the black part of the yin and yang
perfectly capable of tragedy
