Mask

Your eyes smile
Charm crafts style


You know pain
Odd streaks strain


Your crisp voice
Piques verse poise


You hide fear
In loose cheer


Your face stern
Masks old burns


You cast spell
Sharp gaze tells


Your words breeze
As jolts squeeze


You know gall
Pain feels all


Your touch moves
A strange groove


You call out
In calm shout


Your face sums
Watch what comes
