Masks:

By: Me

Layers and layers

Of small white lies

Fly through my life

Like butterflies

Till I'm nothing more

Than masks and masks

And I'm buried so deep

You can't hear my gasp

Gasp, I do,

Gasp for air

For freedom from this constricting lair

I'm a lier

A cheater

A survivor

Addicted to my masks

My masks;

They're my saviors

My jailors

Constricting

Freeing

This gilded cage that I am in...

What's more than another mask?

To Myself I Am...

By: Me

To my parents

I'm a daughter

They can be proud of -

Straight A's

Honor Roll

I can make no mistake

To my teachers

I'm the perfect student

Every teacher's dream -

Studious

Book-loving

I can do no wrong

To my friends

I am a strong friend

One they'll remember

For - what?

Brains

Wit

I am their perfect leader

To myself I am...

All these things and yet nothing

Small white lies

Dangling on a piece of string

Behind the masks I use...

Who am I?

I can find no answer -

And in the darkness of the night

When no one pays me any mind -

I ask my stoic reflection

Who am I?
