When In Doubt, Be Someone Else

"When In Doubt, Be Someone Else" By Marcus Cooke

Facade
A Shattered Visage
Another masked Masquerade
society has made.

Come as you are
be yourself
when in doubt
be someone else.

Who shall i be today?
handsome, charming
a easy lay?
the joker, the fool,
the life and the soul.

I blame society
it was there folly
for not saying sorry
its fair to say
they made me this way?

Lost shapes
lost monopoly pieces
pieces of tin
bits of the jigsaw puzzles
that don't fit in
scattered thoughts
and words creeping
with stealth
all identity is lost
if your not comfortable
being yourself.

So who should i be today?
