The Mask
Make of it what you will
You watch
And let others words
Their actions
Take another turn
In your mind.
You twist
And make others suffer
With lies
Germinated from thoughts
Of your own
And wait and watch
For things to
start unfolding
And laugh
Silently at others
At repercussions
You helped deliver
With poisonous intentions
No remorse
You don’t give a shit
You only want
Your own way
To hide
The real you
But soon
Your mask
Will come away
Like the makeup
On your pillow
To reveal
The true you
And your intentions
You care
Only for yourself
And your actions
And words
Are for your
Gain only.
I see
You for who
You really are
Always have
No bond
There’s no connection
Your words to me
‘You’re nothing but
a cunt’
Cut deep, very…
But you knew
It would
Done on purpose
Another plan
One of many
No remorse
You cause an argument
I’m the target
As always
I’m never believed
All in my head
So they think
It’s not
One day…too late
They will learn
It’s you.
Great work and gutsy too. I think I have it right and, if so, am encouraged by you speaking up. I like, “your mask, like makeup on your pillow.”
All the best,
Jim
