masked
i look in the mirror each day
i am puzzled by the face i see
the mask that's on
is slowly cracking
day by day i brush a piece away
my true face coming out
masked for years by people's words
time for me to take control
to show the real me
and not a mask of what they want me to be
times are changing the facade must go
this will be off completely soon
only a few years to go

By the time that fake mask falls off you will look back upon all the years you have let pass you by. I say just be yourself in the beginning and let it ride out. Good work.
