Unknown Character

Would you have ever guessed
That the person you see before you
Isn't even real.
I am an unknown character.
Always wearing the mask
Of a stranger.
I'm am an actor;
Every day I play the role
Of someone I don't know.

This person behind this mask won't ask for much.
What I do ask, though,
Is that you help find my real character
And wake up from my own reality TV show,
Where everything you see and know
Is a lie, an illusion,
A figment of your imagination.

Help me remind myself and everyone else
Exactly what I look like behind this mask.
I don't want to be an actor anymore,
Or an unknown character.
But if I'm forced to be,
I want to be known as the character
That's simply called Me!

    wow... you're a wonderful poet.
    I've always felt like this, except to very very few people.

    Lovely

    Hello there Starlina. (How do u pronounce that?) Star-leaner or Star-liner? It's a wonderful name! Unique!


    I like the positive affirmation at the conclusion of this poem. Nicely done! Good to see some optimism and it's uplifting for me.

    have a gr8 Easter,
    BJ.

    Great poem. The many masks we all wear! I love the way you put into words the way so many people think and feel, but can't say. Thanks for sharing!
