THE MASK

      













THE MASK

Do you wish to see me?
Bereft of all deceptions
The way I am, naked
Devoid of all contraptions

My scars will all be visible
Some gaping wounds still oozing
Angst, hate, malice and greed
Through my veins cruising

My fetching visage will shatter
My ugliness coming to the fore
My baser drives palpable
My soul, stripped to the core

Think deeply and ponder again
On my knees, I pray
Let me be the way I am
Let the mask on my façade stay

Do you wish to see me?
Bereft of all deceptions
The way I am, naked
Devoid of all contraptions

    The lines befit the philosophical upheaval of human dilemma.

    Such a beseech deserves only one answer.
    Let the facade fall, let me behold thine soul divine. For it knows no pretense and neither can it be defaced.
    It is eternal and beautiful like the Almighty.
    Let it come to the fore. Let it's sheen light up lives
