Masks

There is a point that we reach,
When the daily mask we wear,
No longer fits our life,
So, we remove and dispose of it,
Leaving the flesh beneath raw and pliable,
In the beginning, it’s sensitive to all sensation,
Eventually though,it too will harden,
Life exists in a state of constant flux,
But a time will eventually come,
When no masks are required,
The way we interact with the world will change,
Masks will no longer be needed,
Only then can we finally rest and be free.
