My Mask
November 15, 2015
They say I am smart
But I'm really delirious
They call me funny
But I'm trying to be serious
They say I am cool
But how are they sure
They call me carefree
But I'm in fact insecure
I'm here on this Earth
To find my own way
But I can't find myself
So how have They
The truth is They don't
They see only the mask
And I may take it off
But They never ask
So They will never know
They'll see only a part
For building my mask
Is my form of art
