The Mask That Fell Off!

Published by

on

 

I saw love in your eyes

I saw the warmth,

The flamboyant smiles.

 

I saw the care in your heart

I saw the fear,

The painful pleasure.

 

I saw the truth in your soul

I saw the honesty,

The serene simplicity.

 

And then one day I saw the true colors

I saw the wild lies

I saw the raging rashness

And I saw the youthful odium.

 

Now what do I presume?

Which colors do I assume?

What is right?

What is wrong?

 

I lost faith in myself

While you, shook me to my inner essential.

Was I wrong before?

Am I wrong now?

 

Were you so good in representing?

Or am I so bad in arbitrating?

Am I so inanely innocuous?

Or you are just astonishingly facetious?

 

I though I saw love

I though I saw scrupulousness

But in a flick, one day

The mask fell off

And I didn’t know

What to believe in!

      Thanks dear. Sometimes it is necessary, and the other times, a mask is just a way to deceive people in an absolute wrong way.

        Sometimes one is not aware of the mask one is using, the masks fuse into the face over time

    There is purity in words, tales of our lives, love that we make, many times unrequited yet only a true heart is real. Fantastic Moushmi!

    Splendid and words of Truth in this poem, Moushmi and all is a mask that one day has to be broken and move ahead where you need to really go. Lovely poem.
