Mask of Defeat

A show of courage to mask defeat,

Ample persona to a stolid retreat,

Escape in dreams to break through with force,

Subtle signs the mind steers on course,

Close proximity where normally so far,

The enormity of calamity I cannot mar,

The face that is shown is only a glimmer,

The truth of self slowly grows dimmer,

Change the innocence to abrupt corrupt,

A caged malevolence will soon erupt,

It is the face on the surface that we show,

Others will see what we want them to know,

A lie to oneself is the greatest mistake,

Be true to your instincts or forever forsake
