Deception

by amitav

**How many faces you wish? For you are not true to your own Can you bear the burden of many? Posing as everyone, but you Even the mirror will be flummoxed Ashamed to show the real you Maybe a face forgotten long ago Waging a war against yourself An army of many faces adopted Will bring you to the gallows That will be the end to your identity When you will be unmasked**
