The Mask

The stories they tell
The roles they play
The conversations that they sell

Living and laughing together
But there's something inside
They will never utter
Not to the one
Not to any other

So close and loving
Yet keeping their distance
Without moving
Knowing only the things
That they are showing
Have you ever told everything ?

Some truths are hard to tell
Some lies have to be spelled
Living has a cost
That we are all paying
Wearing the mask - to live in
