Meandering life
Not of my kind
Soporific charm hides chasm
Kindling joy and sorrow.
embraces a maze of moments
Anarchic mind abetsNot of my kind
Soporific charm hides chasm
Kindling joy and sorrow.
For every task, I have a mask
One lives without a trace
One reveals the true face
One not seen in the mirror
One different in demeanour.
Through mitotic phases
Mask paints me in varied faces
As mother, father, sister, brother
Aunt, uncle, just a fellow another.
Some speak truth, some are lies
Some are salty, some have spice
Some are right, some cry foul
Each one is food for soul.
Do I live and die in mask? I ask,
I learn to live, live to learn
In a mask at every turn
To be me myself is all I crave
Sans mask I shall go to my grave.
