Masks

We tend to wear masks, at different times to hide our pain and true feelings Emotions are hard to deal with sometimes Wearing them can be rather healing We hide behind these masks, you see Our masks, they make us feel brave Allows us to be who we want to be It even changes the way we behave Our masks, they hide our imperfections And ease our own doubts and fears They help us avoid societies dissection Used many times over the years We create these masks throughout our lives They helped us get through our past trauma Wearing a mask has helped us survive And let's us step away from life's drama Be wary of the mask that you choose to wear it can hide the real you from sight Reveal your authentic self, if you dare You'll find out that YOU are all right 5/23/2020
