masked gaze



The world a masked maze
As i look through my gaze
As i transcend from this phase

Seen as you have been here and then
Be as you are seen,here it seems at will to bend
Should we all follow the trend

To follow the play of the day
That has it way and its sweet sway

Clock in ,clock out
 so whats today's meeting all about
As utter words seem to sprout
Meaningless thoughts flow down out through their trout
But now i have no doubt

Im sick of these masks that form from the past
To follow a shallow task
To remove you & leave you in the void of the unknown cast
So which is it to be had
To the choice i choose i hope ill be glad
To over come the bad i am
