Only you know the real you.

It's weird to write this type of poem about/for somebody else, mostly the writers write it to let out their emotions and frustrations. Well done there, I like that.
Welcome to YPDC.
Take care.

...masks are scary business...when I read it a second time, I imagined my "ego" talking to my "id..." ...most of us are wearing masks from our early childhood development attachment years...the "puzzle" is certainly hard to figure out, but, you're right, it is worth it...

...most of us have no idea the poem is about us...

...appreciated...
