MASKS


We all want to be held
Have someone REALLY see
Not to have to hide
Be truly ourselves
And know that it's OK
That you're seeing ME
And still standing by me
Tragically rare!
We all hide
And encourage others to do the same
Unable to accept ourselves
Or those around us
Worried about appearances
And afraid of rejection
We walk around
Wearing our masks
I do not want to hide
Anymore
I'm putting it out there
All that I am
Won't put the mask back on
Can't go back to hiding
Feel  exposed
But if you really, truly look
And if I find that you do stand with me
It will be the most amazing gift of a lifetime
And I offer you the same
But if you do not
I will stand alone
