Unbreakable Mask

Hides many your devious ,vicious  traits..
calculated to play a manipulated maze
of mental games,for... a name and fame,
which lives like a water bubble on another.
Those sweet layers when unearthed, put
on a platter ,..are so rancid and bitter,
which smothers the heart ,through
sword like tongue,piercing every memory 
and moment passed, through all  those years.
Striking again and again ,and pulling down the 
castle of trust built carefully, and still trying to
hold together those ashes and rubble. 
Pushed away, those little peaks to your
facade,thinking it to be a sin to have those.
There aint any hammer which can break that mask.

I like your poetry, Kenisha. I agree, we don't have much of a chance to break their masks, it will only break from the inside after a person has a change of heart. Thanks for you visit and for sharing your poetry with us. See you again soon! Bill

Try a blowtorch, I've found it unusually effective against masks ;)
