Mask of Life



Everyday I wear a mask
To cover up the fear
To hide the insecurities
Which are unwelcome here.

I want them all to be fooled
I hope no one can see,
This mask I put on to hide
My personality.

Once I tried to take it off
To show what I hid inside
But it seem no one understood
And much preferred the lies.

So I keep the mask on
Day and night
In fear of showing
How I'm really like.

  1. Hi, Veanna! I'm not sure if you got my previous comment.
    I really like this entry (both the poem and the picture). I would like your permission to use these on a presentation I am putting together where I help others heal as a whole person. Please email me back at bkforjesus@gmail.com. Thank you very much!
