MASK

You try to hide from me,

From everyone,

But I see behind your mask.

You long to be free

From everyone,

But fear and self-doubt keep you locked in your casque. 

You are locked up in your self-imposed prison.

What would it take to set you free?

Do I hold the key?

Unconditional love and friendship

Can unlock your prison bars,

So you look to others, thinking they hold the key.

You are so consumed with figuring out

Who holds the key to your freedom

You cannot see the truth...

You've wasted precious years

Locked in a prison

That only YOU can unlock!
