Masks

Again I put the mask of old
Worn inside by years of use
Bright outside by sparks of gold

I wear the mask that shows the ruse
The one that shows the smiling teeth
As show the truth I now refuse

I wear the mask you like to meet
The one who hides my tears away
The one that covers my eyes weep

And for this time the mask will stay
My eyes will smile and be so bold
Until again my mask I'll lay...
