Faces
The faces shown
Are not the faces known
Each expression hides
Secrets of its own
One minute smiles
The other misguides
The mind negotiates
Through treacherous aisles.
No one shows one’s true self
Sincerity’s on the shelf
Out the window goes
Mental health
Faces, you see
Are masks that we
Put on and take off
Only one holds true
That’s the day when
Our lives are through.
