Conflict from Behind My Mask
Who are you?
Who am I?
Who do you WANT to be?
Who WILL you be?
Until I know there will always be that mask,
For my Protection, from
Judging eyes and the unknown,
I don’t know how this mask got here,
It makes it hard to see all the beautiful things,
Like the lightning during a thunderstorm,
Or the moment right before an ocean wave breaks,
Maybe the mask is there for someone to save me from,
What is that I see from behind my mask?
A girl,
Alone,
Crying,
Where is her mask?
I should save her,
But I’m too busy holding my mask in place,
To save myself.
