Beautiful mask

by Haley Elizabeth   Jan 13, 2012


A mask made of pure beauty,
It was thought to cover the shame of ugliness.
"Oh beautiful mask," people would call,
"Come sweep away my shame and add beauty to me."
The mask was not to cover a few flaws,
It was used on those who thought they were too gorgeous to go unhidden.
A mask of such beauty used as a disguise for selfish faces.
Who would have thought that the mask of beauty was really a mask of selfishness?
