Draco's POV…

~*~

The Mask I Wear

I'm wearing a mask

It hides my face.

When I put it on,

I become someone else.

Someone people despise.

They hate me for what they think I am

And I hate the person they see.

I was taught to bear it.

Always.

To show an illusion,

To be my family name worthy.

To make my ancestors proud.

That is what people expect.

I can't take it off

It's glued to my face.

And I hate it.

I hate it,

But can't live without it.

It's a part of me,

A part of my life.

I have never taken it off.

Never.

I hate it.

But fades without it.

And a Malfoy doesn't know how to fade.
