The faces of the faceless,

They come and go‐

Everyday there's a new mask,

And every minute, a new man

Infinitely temporary‐

There's no telling, what he's not telling‐

Sometimes it's those who speak the least,

That have the most to say‐

The least that meets the eye,

Who house the most treasure,

OR

Tolerate the most torment‐

The faces of the faceless,

The faces we may know,

But don't know~

Everyday there's a new mask,

And every week, a new woman

Infinitely temporary‐

There's no telling what she's not telling

These secrets are a trauma-made commitment‐

No one knows their real faces,

No one has seen, the faces, of the faceless-

About the Creator

JM

Personally, writing began as a creative outlet, to be a means of processing and venting emotion, but it has become so much more. Something I want not to be just relatable, enjoyable and a good read, but to reach someone who is in need.
