I want to be me but I don't know who me is.
Beyond the smiles, come a very soft lingering hiss
Telling me to reveal what is hidden
Calling me to force myself broken
I try pushing past these walls of sane disguise
But nothing seems to be hidden under my eyes
I let my mask fall, waiting to see myself in the mirror
Petrified by my own reflection, seeing my face in
I didn't have eyes to stare blankly at
Or a nose to smell the sweat beading my palm
Nor a mouth to taste the tears falling from a shallow black hole.
It scared me on how dumb I am to forget why I used a mask to start with.
(p.s: a lil continuation of my poem MASKED)
