I Wear the Mask

Let those who see me for what I really am revere my secrets to the end.
For I wear the mask.
And for those who shout whim of my infamous past, have an ecstasy that last.
For my baseness of life will fall.
In the end will it be worth it all?
For I wear the mask.
You were vindictive once,
But you have been forgiven.
Your love for me was heedless,
Wild and free.
But now all that is left,
Is a mask…
And me.
