I stretched a smile
and hold laughter at times
cried out loud to be heard
and sometimes spoke in a mime
I knew their real faces
yet pretended to be ignorant
with reality on the backdrop, I faked myself
I had to put on a mask at somepoint
I hardly recognize myself now
time changed, people changed,
places changed, and I changed too
Then, unknowingly, I put my past self to an end
Today, I crave to be my that self
I want to drag myself out of this disguise
I know nobody cares, and why would they
but whatever, I don’t want to change myself!!!
