Why do people wear masks?

Does it have a purpose?

Does everyone wear a mask?

Or do people just wear a mask to hide something or who they really are?

I know why I wear mine

I dont really think I have a true self, I've lived with this mask for a long time

Now, it's consumed me; Replaced me; Become me

Most of the things about me is fake

People dont notice or just dont care

The smile of happiness I wear; The smile no one is able to read

It's easy to look at a smiling face and be tricked into thinking someone's happy; One must look into the eyes to understand someone's pain

All they had to do was look into my eyes to see my pain

My eyes show to much

My pain

My loneliness

But most of all; The hate for this world

No one cares enougth to pull my mask off; They only see my pain and loneliness for a minute and its gone

The only one that got close to taking off my mask was my cousins; Karlee and Renee; their the only ones that got close enougth to taking off the mask

only thing was that when they did; I felt fear rise up in me

I dont know why but I fear of someone seeing the real me

I cant let that happen now

not after this long

I wont let someone see the real me

never ever

I cant let that happen yet anyway

I'm show them the real me when I'm ready

for now; its just the mask

The mask that says I'm Narumi Uzumaki
