Masks of many faces
Standing in front of the mirror,
Transfixed by the reflection,
Wondering which mask shall be seen,
Gentle touching my fragile skin,
Wrinkles, hints of the lines appearing,
Age, fastly catching my lifestyle choices,
Decisions are still pending,
Whom shall make an appearance today,
Possessing many different masks,
Keeping what’s true, hidden from sight,
Afraid of being unaccepted,
Longing to only belong,
Therefore as the mask conceals,
Playing my role as society demands,
Layers and layers, from many masks,
Upon which covers my many faces.

But, if you wear all those masks all the time, then, they will become burdensome on your heart, and eventually, you must take them all down, regardless of whether or not the world like the real you or not!

That’s why finding who I really am inside, is the most difficult thing I had ever faced.

just keep on digging deep, until you find the truth about yourself, i’m sure, that there are still, things about you that you have yet to uncover in your life, and, it seems that you’re, on your way there…
