...

Tell me,

Why do I even bother to put on a mask?

A façade to deceive people around me?

People who I ACTUALLY trust and care about?

I was told that it was because we had hearts.

I did not have one before this.

Even if I did it lay dormant and forgotten.

But being with people like you made me human.

Being with people like you made me have a conscience.

Is this a good thing?

Its good that I care more about people I trust now.

But I am fake towards those I dislike.

This is not good.

As least, when I wasn’t human

Everyone was equal.

I showed my dislike whenever I wanted and my trust whenever I willed.

I was true to what I feel.

Even if whatever I felt then was limited.
