my mask
I wear my mask so that you can not see me.
I wear this mask so that you can not know me.
I wear the mask so that you can not understand me
I wear my mask so that you can not feel me.
I wear the mask to hide my imperfections of life
to hide away and become safe within my limits
be my own best friend
and let no one in
I have covered this mask in gold to show my personality
make my happiness towards people shine though
but at the same time hide my expressions
so that others are always happy
I have made this mask out of clay to show that I am fragile
if you touch me I am smooth and soft
I appear to have no imperfections
but if I am torn away I break at he first touch
the only thing that I allow the world to see it my eyes
the bright blue of the sun kissed sky
the windows to my soul
to see weather they see the true me.
over the years the clay becomes worn and tired
the gold flake off from the touch of others
but my eyes will stay true
the only thing that others can not change about me
