The Mask
The Mask
By: Miracle Man
10-19-2018
Sometimes I fail to recognize the man
That hides his face behind a mask.
Who prefers the periphery (And being alone) over the public eye
While finding no task too daunting to attempt;
But behind this mask,
Lurks the face of an angry man;
Most days this man is filled with compassion,
But depression constantly tells him he is worthless,
To fire back and “Take no prisoners”
