Wisepicks For 1 October

Sarrveshwaran

 

As I sit alone at the end of the day
Shedding away the masks I wore,
I find myself staring at the mirror,
Not knowing who I am anymore.

 

Anubha Sharmaย 

 

A daughter, a wife, a mother
and a professional,
All the spheres of my lifeย 
have been incredible;
So many masks I wear,ย 
but oh my dear mirror;
Who lies beneath these masks,ย 
no one else but only you careย ย 

 

Anubha Sharma

 

Mirror mirror on the wall,
In front of you all the masks fall;
You make me meet the real me,
What no one can’t,ย 
only you can see.

 

Sulekha Pandeย 

 

The mirror tells me my truth,
I have lived a lie all my youth,
I now gathered all the courage,
I know how to deal with rage,
took off all the masks that I wore,
feeling free from every pore.

 

Brizza Patten

 

Each day he sat in front of the mirror,ย 
deciding which mask he needed.
ย His blank expressionย 
was becoming more prevalentย 
as the emptiness grew insideย 
from denying his authentic self

 

Nirekshitha Kunder

 

The options of masks were vast,ย 
And what a magic it had cast,ย 
But glory did come at a cost,ย 
It was myself I had lost.

 

Rajeshwari S Kamale

 

While wearing all these masksย 
all the time just to impress the world.ย 
Today, I have lost my own real face.

 

Jenn McPherson

 

No one knows who I really am.ย 
They know only what I chooseย 
to show them.

 

Debra Pry

 

When the mask comes off,ย 
you still have to liveย 
with the person you are.

 

Kathy Alshayeย 

 

At the end of the day,ย 
who are you really?

 

Asmiya S

 

Tired of being always the masked one
Sitting alone,and removing one by oneย 
And found It merely made me no one.ย 

 

Chris Cooperย 

 

The bearer of many facesย 
will always remain facelessย 
in the pursuit of his or her true identity

 

Robin Kirk

 

Lost in Translation

 

Trisha Lynn

 

No one seesย 
the real me

 

Belinda Stott

 

I am nothingย 
without my masks

 

Tina Bazilewichย 

 

Life is a charadeย 
which role will I put on today ?

 

Sagorika Saha

 

Who are youย 
when no one is looking ?

 

Shubha Vasan

 

You just can’t lieย 
to yourself

 

Sherry Greene

 

You can look and what you see
Is the many changing faces of me.
I sit, I stare,
But I don’t care.
So don’t you know,
It’s on with the show.
