A/N: I originally wrote this in Spanish, and it sounds much better in Spanish than in English. This is just a rough translation of the prettier-sounding Spanish version, and I posted it at the request of a friend.


The Mask


-x-

You seem to be angry

on the outside,

but underneath the mask

there is something other than anger.

-x-

Looking at life through eyes

that aren't yours,

you hide behind your façade,

hoping that your heart

and your soul

will not become exposed.

-x-

But I see through your mask,

and the reality is

appearances can be deceiving.

-x-

Today the mask is gone—

you've finally left it behind.

Now everyone can see your real personality

instead of your lie.


Review... please?
