False Identities
My form is stable.
But, even I contain jagged edges
If you welcome me.
With a grin, that is sincere.
I will satisfy you.
If I can see beyond your smile, and see the masked amount of fake before me, you have closed the door..
The door, in which may have been able to be released.
I do not participate in games.
I have come to the conclusion.
I have had enough.
I have been allowing myself to believe.
That all of you were actually real.
Now it's time to melt your plastic.
Your fake identities have built me as a person.
Built up my wall of trust.
When it is remade.
It will be invincible.
