A Mask

A mask.


That’s all it is.


But I make a joke. I must be fine.


I’m just too good.


I’m laughing. I must be fine.


A mask.


That’s all it is.


I smile. I must be fine.


I don’t know anymore.


Who am I?


A comedian? Or an actress?


A lyer and deceiver? Or a clown?


I don’t know anymore.


Is this who I am inside?


No.


A mask.


That’s all it is.


The world is just a masquerade.


But it ended already.


My mask isn’t pretty.


It isn’t gold.


It isn’t intricate or special.


But it’s a mask all the same.


It just has my face.


It just wear a smile.


To shield the world from the emptiness underneath.


Who am I?


Am I anyone?


I don’t know anymore.


Because I have disappeared.


Thanks to my mask, I don’t need to be here.


But.


A mask.


That’s all it is.
