MaskA Poem by Funmi Elizabeth OlaiyaCovered facial-expressions At this junction I'll try to be your best friend Then, back stab you to the end It's not only about what is outside It flourishes from the inside Love has to be unconditional No matter what&who you are Some are not what they seem But they know how to fit Misleading you to it I call it fake 'cos it's give and take We could all be together in this lake But try not to hurt someone for God's sake Love is beautiful Love is powerful The outside of you is like a built mask You could ask You can adorn and dress it with beauty You could use a mask To cover evil or good But search towards the inside What if you remove the mask What will remain of the inside Is it good or bad? Many of us uses masks Let our inside speak for us Some of us are masked unknowingly It's time to let the world know How beautiful we are on the inside We've gotta forget those masks Ahead of us, we've got bigger tasks © 2016 Funmi Elizabeth Olaiya |
