The Mask

The mask who hides your true self

When you trust a person
You trust them blindfully
Believing them to be genuine
And most of all trustful

Yet when they take off the mask
They flee from their responsibilities
And that's where you see their second face
A face no one wants to see

Ignorant to believe that true side of theirs
Is like a "mask" that hides their true self
I for being blind
Have learned my lesson
That 'thy shall not trust so easily'

Although the mask may seem colorful from the outside
Not everything is viewed in color
Behind the mask it's just plain, as the reality of life

Therefore, I shall be careful from those
who wear a "mask"
So that I in the end
Shall not be taken "granted"
