Masks

Who is she?
Everyday, even worse.
Concealing herself from the world.
Maybe the world concealing itself from her.
Know one knows.
With the mask she wears,
Know one knows who she really is on the inside.
No friends,
no family,
no love.

Who is she?

behind the mask

This is a very powerful poem in that you expressed a strong emotion effectively. Who is behind the mask? why does he/she feel this way? Perhaps you could elaborate on this? Also, I believe you meant "No one knows" instead of "Know one knows".

This is a really good piece

This is a really good piece dealing with emotions that everyone has once in awhile. Is the mask a symbol for a girl who is hiding from people and the world?
