It begins
an entire world shimmers
I reach for all
with my deepest self

Then time unfolds
and with it its pains
its unexpectations
And parts I begin to hide

A need arises
with it a mask
Then another need another mask
And more becomes unseen
to even me

Time unfolds
different needs and more masks
hide self from even self
I become my own mask
lost in time
