Unmasked

I have seen how you act

When they aren't around,

I have seen you smile

Though they think you're down.

You think your mask

Can shield you from the world for long?

Let me be the first to tell you,

You are wrong.

I have seen your precious,

Strong façade break down.

I have witnessed your fearless nature

Cave in all around.

There are no secrets

You have kept inside,

That are hidden from me.

I know all the answers of your lies.

Although you still wear a mask,

Though, for help, you've never asked,

Your very soul is,

To me, unmasked.
