Removing the mask you bear,
The one painted in sadness and doubt.
Removing this cover we find another.

This middle layer (the second lie)
is the mask of fake smiles most people wear.
No one can really smile that long,
So we must lift once more and cinch our eyes.

Beneath this second film cover we find the human you are.
The person you have only let a total of two people see.
I, being one of the few, have only been graced on the rarest occasions.

Most people only wear one mask,to hide the pain.
But you, you wear two: for hiding the pain then hiding the fake joy.
Its clever, believable, unique, and a mistake.

For only you would need two extra layers to hide how extraordinary you really are.
