Inaction vs. Reaction

I am no superhero, but I wear a mask.

My mind is morbid and macabre,

My face is stoic and static.

 

What am I thinking? "Nothing," I will answer.

It's my inaction that becomes my reaction,

I am more worried of your thoughts.

 

Hold me now, I am balancing on a wall of bricks.

I can become my true self,

But I must be able to take a risk.
