Hide behind a mask
An eternally shifting mental state
Disguise yourself
Fantasize you’re not the fool
Drench yourself in a smothering glaze
In an attempt to conceal your putrid state
Hovering realism shadows
A once dazzling persona
Your camouflage is bleeding
Droplets of reality
The sham now exposed
Continue this puppet show
Coddle your masquerade
You’ve only yourself to convince
