like the song says
"we can take our heads off stay in bed and just make love that's all."
because baby you never who I'll be.
This mask comes off
and a different one takes it's place
different emotions
for a different face
today I'll be your lover
tomorrow I'll be someone you never met
next month I'll be the homeless person you pass on the street begging you to spare some change
I don't think you understand
that to play pretend is to really live!
I've been so many different people
my thought process is never really gonna be my own
but the one I just can't crack
is the one I follow home
hello gorgeous, what are you thinking?
who are you fucking?
are you dreaming of me,
the stranger that follows you home trying everything they can
to get inside your head.
Author notes
this poem seems a little creepy i guess...the rhyme scheme is surprising, since I'm not a big fan of rhyming. I guess I took a different sort of twist on the picture if you don't like the f-word i can change it.

yes, it is a little creepy.
I don't mind swearing, although the use of the word seemed a little off in the poem.
Thank you for entering, and good luck with the contest
