'Who are you?'

Could you answer if asked?

What would you say,

If you are living a life that is masked?

Would you force on a smile,

And tell a pretty lie?

Or would you break,

Share all your secrets and cry?

'Don't ask for an answer,

You don't wish to hear.'

Sometimes the lines,

Are not always clear.

'Please,

Don't push me away saying it is for the best.

Let me in,

Leave off the mask.'
