Reflections



Look at me
You may think you see
Who I really am
But you'll never know me
Everyday
It's as if i play a part
Now I see, if I wear a mask
I can fool the world
But I cannot fool my heart
-------------------------------
One day, I awoke from a deep, deep sleep and found out that all my masks were gone. I looked for them everywhere but I could not find them.

My masks! How can I go out into this world without those masks I have fashioned for most of my emotions.
I searched outside and the rays of the morning sun, high in the sky, streamed down my maskless face. I looked up in reaction and closed my eyes as its mild heat brought warmth and purpose to my being. At that moment, the most unexpected and incredible occurred, rousing my spirit. And I knew instantly that it is good.

Now, I am maskless.

I am at peace.
