all of us wear masks.
they can be worn out of love, and the desire to remain close to those around us.
to spare them from the complicated reality of our frayed psyches.
we trade honesty for companionship.
and in the process, never truly know the hearts closest to us.
so much danger in this world is hidden behind masks.
we tell our children stories of Good and Evil, while knowing its not that simple.
true evil doesnt give us time to fight.or to be afraid.
we keep our heads down, never bothering to look behind the masks.and in doing so, we resign ourselves to terrible fates we can never see coming.
