Mask!




What did the night say,
what did you hear?
Did it speak of your greatest fear?
What did the mind say,
what did your heart hear?
didn't it tell you about the things you'll bear?
What fate had in it's play,
what did it play?
didn't it leave anything for destiny to say?

What dreams did your mind sketch,

what did they precis?
weren't they short of colours to depict it all?
What did the people say,
why did it matter?
didn't they opt a worthless chatter?

What did you wish to have,

what did you crave?
I only wish, may you be brave,
to follow it to your grave!
Why did I question,
what did I ask?
may be it's not me,
may be it's your mask!
