See Beyond the Mask

What is it about perceptions that makes people so vunerable to being decieved? Why is it, that we, as humans, are so fatally flawed in the practice of seeing those for who they truly are?

I have lived my entire life with these people. And i know them, probably better than they know themselves.

How are they so good and fooling everyone else? 
Including themselves?

Is it me? Am i wrong?
But how could i be?
how can i just forget and forgive those years...
those memories?
those scars?
or the fact that they are like old firecrackers, touch them and they could go off when you least expect it.

Is my true face as hidden as theirs?
Or do i have so many now that i dont know which one is real?
What would I do if this was a disease, 
passed on from one generation to the next....
Could I live to see my children grow to be just as fake?
Am i like them? Does my outer face resemble theirs?

More importantly, how about the one inside?
Who is right and who is wrong doesnt matter anymore.
I've just gotten lost while searching for myself.

adieu
