Mask

There they stand,

Faces set firmly in place with the masks they wear daily.

A different face for everyone.

Some happy,

Some sad,

Mostly happy.

Molding themselves into what the world wants.

Mother wants this,

Father wants that,

Friends, Family, Teachers, Haters.

A different face for each.
