masks
i've worn many masks througout my life,
in my childhood it was the comedy, as i tried to hide all the pain
in my teenage years it was one with a myriad of colors as the way i saw the world
in the early 20;s it was a females mask
as i travel down lifes path i look back at the fragments of ceramic that is my past
with a smile on my face i remove the final mask, my vision goes black for but a brief second, and within that time all the fears i once had envelope my entire being, only to be seared away by the burning sun. this is the first time i have let the sun touch my true face for many years...... it feels good
