What do you see, when you look at me?
Do I look carefree? Do I, perchance, look happy?
If the answer is yes, then I have succeeded.
Because this is the mask I wear for you.
What do you see, when you look at me?
Do I look perturbed? Do I look angry?
If the answer is yes, then I have succeeded.
Because this is how I keep you away from me.
What do you see, when you look at me?
Do I look amused? Am I restless and hyper?
If the answer is yes, then I have succeeded.
Because I’m not only fooling you, but I’m also fooling me.
What do you see, when you look at me?
Do I look sad? Do I look sullen?
If the answer is yes, then I have failed.
Because this is the me that I don’t want you to see.
