Modern Maskerade

Made up eyes with false smiles Filling our soul’s cracks with foundation Editing ourselves into oblivion. We don’t exist anymore, only our mask. Only a mask remains Holding together our fragmented souls. The infrastructure of the mind is a rusted playground from our youth Replaced with the mask of megapixels on a social media app.
