Persona

Persona

A Poem by RoyRogers
"

So many masks which one to pick? The perfect mask and the perfect trick. Which one is right for every occasion and everything ends when you end the illusion.

"
So many of you but which one is right. Never the person of all your sight. Simply is a empty shell of a man. 
Repair again and again is all that I can. Carry these masks I always put on. Tomorrow im batman and today just 
who knows. Without these masks I am less than nothing. This is truly what creates my own madness. Every 
mask has been rejected again and again. Losing my grip of what keeps me sane. There is parts but none of them 
whole. Only the mask allows them to come through. No one understands I have no real identity. No one 
understands I am always hiding. Wonder why I keep playing the part. I am a shell and here are my masks. They 
are slipping away and soon I wont last. When you destroy every last one. That is when I will truly be gone.

Such honesty, and a hauntingly dark poem.
However I know you, and you don't have to be the Pierrot. It is a fact that everyone is someone. No matter how long you feel you have a mask, a mask is there to cover something. The mask only exists because something lives underneath. You have life, take grasp of it. :)
