"MASKED" By Rita Loyd

At times I hide behind a mask,

disguising who I am

and the frailties that I possess.

But then

the voice of my spirit emerges

and reminds me that 

we all fall short of perfection.

And that those who appear perfect

are wearing a mask as well.

So, instead of hiding,

I am prompted to embrace 

my imperfections with love.

and with this inner shift

of self acceptance,

a radiance shines forth

surpassing any physical adornment

I could ever possibly hide behind.
