Hide and Seek
People hide behind masks of normality
For reasons unknown to people living in reality
They tuck themselves away in surreal places
Nobody knows they’re gone just by looking at their faces
These peoples’ actions speak louder than their words
For words are just letters strung together on cords
But actions, they are a reflection of one’s personality
For they show flaws in a masked persons’ morality
These masked people cannot be distinguished
So that their masks cannot be extinguished
Living in a world of defenses and lies
Is their sense of a suitable disguise
Living truthfully and with a sense of pride
Is the only way to make the pain of reality subside
