I wove a mask from sorrow and fear
Created someone new
A happy person
A wonderful person
Maybe a person like you
Ahh but Under the mask is
Hatred
Desperation
Wanting to be loved
Under the mask I am a small trapped bird
Waiting, wanting to be free
For tis under the mask you must fear
For that is you
Make no mistake
There's nothing that's quite perfectly formed
but rather the beast within.
And for those who do not hide nor shrink away in fear
I applaud your audacity and hope that you shall remain one more day here
Till away you are swept in the earth's business and forget who you really must be.
Just remember all you need is to take off the mask and reveal what's underneath.
