The Mask !!

Whether its Birthday parties
Halloween or Christmas !
FRIDAY the 13th..
Scaring us at nights..
or any gutsy Knight
Wearing it all through his fight !!

The yellow suited man..
with a green face pack..
and a SMOKE IT tag..
gets all the power,
the humour and ecstacy
when he wears it right !

YES! its the MASK..the toy in light

Some wear for fun &livelihood
Some to scare
Some to protect
and Some for protest !

We use it to hide our feelings..
hid deep within.
With a torn, ripped and bleeding heart
WE SMILE !!
Words filled with subtleties
when Minds in bile..!

Yes! the Mask it is..
Sometimes needed..sometimes dangerous
Sometimes deceptive..sometimes tangled !
 Behind every smile..there are tears..
Behind every comfort there are fears!
What we see aint always real..
What seems far is sometimes near!!

Who seem to care..
May be a fictitious and lie..
Unmask...
and you see a face
clever and sly !!

When would the real us emanate..
when would the feelings rise
When would the fears fly!!

We too wear a mask..
not to deceive and cheat
But to protect ourselves
from all the lies so neat !

Glory and pride..
Love and care
Brother hood and share
can only be seeked
if our hearts are true and fair
to all that we reach!

Don't expect the world to be wise..
What you think is all where it lies!
Put off the toy..the Mask in time..

Else you wont realise
if its really you..
or the mask..
that has taken you over in stride!
