Nice to meet you
My name is Mask,
I smile and say "I'm fine"
To all those who ask.
Your secrets I keep hidden
From all those prying eyes,
Camouflage your emotions
Your feeling become lies.
Wear me for too long and
Your soul I may steal,
Steep price to pay just to
Not want to feel.
Often in life we're judged by
Those who know not our
                              whole story,
Who live equally fake sheltered
By false glory.
Not all of us can handle
The monster inside,
That's why I am worn
So he can safely hide.
Removing me is a task
Not easily done.
You must fight with yourself
Until one of you has won.
So if ever you want to face
The beast within,
Prepare yourselves for war
And let your games begin...    

By,
T.K.
