Unmasked

You saw the cracks beneath the glaze,  

The fractured truth behind their praise.  

A mirrored mask, so carefully worn,  

Now chipped and fractured, bent and torn.  

They seethe beneath a practiced smile,  

A fury hidden, fierce and vile.  

For in your eyes, they’ve lost control,  

Unraveled lies, exposed their role.  

They’ll rage against your silent gaze,  

And set the past alight, ablaze.  

For truth’s a threat they cannot bear—  

A mirror clear, a glare laid bare.  

Yet let them storm, let anger reign,  

You’ve freed yourself from tangled chains.  

For truth, once known, can’t be erased—  

You’ve seen their mask, and seen their face.
