I can understand why you have chosen a mask, <br />From which undercover you feel an ease... <br />To address insults a disguise allows to please. <br /> <br />Cowards seem always proud of such conquests. <br />These actions affords them, <br />An attention they get to spew their bitterness. <br /> <br />But somehow their minds stay stuck and confined, <br />To an emptiness that smothers them... <br />With a hatred of self they can not leave behind! <br /> <br />And this exposes who they really are, <br />Time after time... <br />After time reveals the deceiving kind!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
