Masks

Is this me?
The thought rings in my head.
I grasp the edge of the mask
and struggle with all my might.
With a sickening snap
it falls to the ground and shatters.
One more down
how many more to go?
When will I find the real me?
I see others wear them proudly.
Too afraid to be themselves.
Too afraid to change
and peel away the masks.
Every day another down,
every day they hate me more.
I often wonder though
is the real me something I want?
What if he's horrible?
But then I remember
the masks need to go.
Look what it's done to them.

Love,
Fox Makenshi

I really like this one because it reminds me of myself and how people are in general. Nice.
