Why do We wear Masks?

The BlackShakespeare

We wear masks, a simple glow.

 

We smile and chuckle, it's for a show.

 

So why pretend and wear a mask?

 

This false presence, it is a task.

 

The world, a circus and we are clowns. 

 

We wear many masks and walk around. 

 

To be true to one's self, it is the best.

 

To be honest and true, it is a test.

 

So discard your mask and be all true.

 

Let the world love, you being you!
