The Masks we wear.
WHO AM I?
Who am I?
Under this mask
Is it all a lie
Keep my secrets in a flask.
Tell me why I have to hide
Behind a curtain
These rules I must abide
Can’t you see I’m hurtan.
Who am I?
Who are they?
Who are You?
Will the truth convey?
THE MASKS WE WEAR ARE COLORFUL
The masks we wear are colorful.
He is blue,
She is read,
And maybe you are yellow.
There are greens, and purples –
Any color you can think of, but
These are simply masks.
And what do we wo with masks?
We hide away. We cover but stay.
My colors are not known, because I am me
THE MASK WE WEAR
The mask we wear
so people don’t stare
To get the fame that never come
We reach to the skies
In order to get the prize
To stop the distress
And get success
Is why we wear the mask.
YOU WEAR THEM EVERYDAY
You wear them every day,
Except when you’re alone
Used to cover insecurities
Shown through faking emotions.
Our masks!
