Halloween
Facepaint in vivid colors of the rainbow,
And plaster, plastic, and paper mache masks which happen to range from silly to scary
The children and those young at heart,
Walk 'round covered by their thin mask's on this one special night
But the chants of trick or treaters cannot cover the quetions that echo inside
For are these costumes the true mask I hide behind?
Something wrong with this poem?

Hey, I'm kinda just getting into poetry and I saw this and thought "hey maybe I'll see what happens" So don't be to harsh I'm only here to express myself. I know the topics I go into might not be as deep but I try. :)
