Unmasked
I've been gone for too long
away from the world
but now I am back
with my eyes wide open
But I've noticed
changes
Hiding in my sanctuary
I've had an eternity to think
I am not who I thought I was
indeed hiding behind this mask
I look in the mirror to see who am I
The saddness of the world
all of its forgotten dreams,
its hopes,
its tradgedies
all in my eyes
all the good hidden
behind my faded smiles
And all of the depression in
the bags under my eyes
And all the anger deep inside
were no mirror dare reflect back
The insanity flowing out of my ears
And my dirty mouth
from all the ******** I've eaten up
My hands worn down and scarred
from all my lifes work
And only a lifetime more to go
WHEN...?
