Masks; not the ones worn on the night of fright,
But the masks which portray false personality
And refuse to uncover our faces to light.
Such denial in agreement to a task
It was once like Ebola
A fear of instant death
It changed our lives forever
The thought of it makes us shiver
Some still fear the name
Others fear the shame
We call it AIDS
I met this boy Jimmy and he was out of control
but I loved him so I left a few things roll
some things that I probably should've put my foot down to
but Jimmy made it seem like I was all he knew
