Confessions
How well do you know me
Just as superficial maybe
A stranger you never knew
Or a friend you thought you knew
Come, a little bit closer
To see me far more better
But please not too near
For there are thoughts hidden inside me
That you must not see and hear
My world shines the brightest
At least, that’s what you see in my face
But there are times when in pours like hell
With tears that fill a well
I breathe the air of sigh
I smile even if I have to cry
But you’ll never see me cry
Oh no, I’l never let you try
For I have painted my own rainbow
Made from the prism of tears;
Rays of my shadow
So amid the mist of doubt
Wanders the land with a colorful mask
“A mask? Why wear a mask?”
You just might ask
To hide some grief and imperfection
Anger, uncertanainty and indecision
And show you a front that’s bright
Telling you everything is alright
Otherwise from me you might stay away
And I’d be alone,
Ill
be astray
No one seem to care
NO one seem to dare
To see the real me behind the mask
But what’s real or what’s not
Maybe it doesn’t matter that much
As long as I can make you laugh
And be closer when you need a friend
To cheer you up when you weep
Don’t judge me as a deceiver
Though I sounded like a pretender
But please understand me for my act
Its just the courage to be “me”
Is what I lack
I stumbled in land of yours
Surrounded by mountains by seas and by walls
Should I ask you this thing
Promise to be honest in everything
How well do you know me?
Could you describe me as me?
The me you seldom see,
which is the other side of thee?
