How many masks do I observe
Through the course of each day?
The truth of an individual
Is concealed by a facade.
That person is easily recognized
Through a brief observation.
This is too trying a thing
Given our predilection for fantasy.
We want a person to be
That which is obvious.
None want to discover
The realities of those around.
How is it possible to exist
When others are disturbed by myself?
Have I nearly disappeared
Within the ghost of who i am not?
