Behind the mask
Just behind the indifferent mask,
You will have to remove make-up,
Bare-faced climb up the scene.
You will need to peel off the things
You were taught when you were a kid,
When you learnt how to hide your face
And become half-alive indeed.
To be nice and to wear a smile
On your face and to search for wealth.
And amid “happy person” style
Lose your natural inner self.
I was taught the same, if you ask.
And since then changed a dozen of roles.
I have tried on so many masks,
That I’m scared to get rid of those.
In attempts to return again to myself,
To my sacred being
I sometimes feel so close to death
And so close to the sense of living.
