MASKS
politicians use lies
to conceit the truth.
poets, writers use lies
to reveal the truth.
people, we chose to live
behind the mask
for we fear there'll be
no acceptance of whom
you, we really are.
people, we hope
for the day of freedom
when we can be independent
and free to be who
you, we really are.
sadly, regretably
society, it disregards us
people, we cannot be free
until the day
you, we free ourselves.
discard the mask,
for what lies beneath the flesh
is what really matters.
the burns, scars, scratches
are nothing more
than marks of societal cruelty.
open your mind and heart
to another level
in this universe.
for the world is expansive
some place, it belongs
to you and me.
where people,
we love each other as one
without the masks,
we love each other
as one.
