To Faery

I am my Self, concealed in darkness of the cave,

Which is my shell, and a beloved hateful prison.

Behind the mask unwillingly I hide, yet truth escapes my reason.

What makes me who I am? My faded past, where memories take root?

My face that withers soon or gives to mirrors artificial smiles?

My words and promises, to which I cry indignantly: "the lies!" ?

I wear my shape for ages now, the layers crude and peeling easily.

What is beneath remains, like secret of a pearl, a grain of mystery, 

Affixed to ancient muddy shores of waters flowing through the Void.
