Poem -
The Mask
I have a mask,
but its old now.
I have a mask,
that looks like it will soon break.
I have a mask,
and nobody has seen under it.
Under this mask is me,
a girl of many fears.
Under this mask is me,
the girl who feels alone.
Under this mask is me,
the one who will never fit in.
The mask is pretty,
it makes the wearer look happy.
The mask is pretty,
it hides all of the shame.
The mask is pretty,
it looks like a normal face.
My mask will soon break,
then what will I do?
Without the mask,
I won't look like you.
Without the mask
I will look dead.

A write showing how an act or manufactured character can protect your real self from the harshness of this world with all its threats. The "mask" created is not necessarily who you are in full but is more the person you feel you can be if you were not plagued by insecurities.
A write expressing the importance of confidence and self worth to provide defences against that which would harm you.
Great write. Wishing you the very best in whatever you choose to do.
Take care. Β :)
