My Mask
by: Alicia Saha (aka) Daydream
i dream at night of yesterday's past
i wake up in the morning and put on my mask
i go to school.. i talk and i laugh,
but they've yet to realize im wearing my mask.
Remaining nonchalant i hide from the truth-
in my own little world...in my own little booth.
Have they yet realized?
Have you noticed it too?
Does it hide so well that its inconspicuous to you?
Distinguishing myself from the things that i do.
Is it on? Is it off? Has it built up and GREW?!?!
Do you TOO wear one?!!
Would they laugh if they knew?!!
Would faces turn pink as feelings turn blue...?
So to protect myself i wear this mask.
I wear this guise.
Repeat his task.
Until i sleep at night and dream yesterday's past,
then wake up in the morning... and put on my mask.
