Behind the mask

Who am I behind this mask?

Oh how you wonder and ask,

I am no one I reply

and I always try to deny

who I am inside.

so, as you have poked and pried

I begin to question

whether or not to be done

and to show who I really am inside

So, I show myself and take the comments in stride

knowing that no one can say I've lied.

So I stand tall and smile

knowing that my trueself is worthwhile.

That hiding behind my mask is worthless

for to me my true self is flawless.
