Mask On My Face
Even though my mood is bad
I can't be expected to be sad
Even when my eyes are nude
I am seen as a rude
In this world so big
And everyone with a task
I have to wear a wig
And cover my face with a mask
My persistence is unpleasant to you
So does my existence hurt them
But the way you sue
It seem I am nothing more than a stem
Even when I am good
Not to me but to you
Why I'm tagged as a shrewd
And seen as someone in a zoo
About this poem
The poem is about the two-sided personality of ours (any person). How the society and our closed ones controls our emotion and tell is what is right and wrong. And question our every choice.
