A Masquerade

Ugly .
That's what the world is , that's what my little world is : Ugly .

Back when i was a kid , i used to think that the world is beautiful . Everything was so lovely . And at times , i even feel that i was beautiful , cause i was livin' in such a beautiful world . But everything was just a facade . Slowly , things began to unfold as i grew . The world no longer reflect a beautiful picture . As i grew , i find that everyone in this society wears a mask and everyone behaves so unnaturally . Everyone pretends to be someone they're not , be it pretending to be kind , friendly , "cool" or even fillial . It's like a make-believe world . It's not that all of us wants to pretend , it's because we have to in order to fit in to this society . Everyone is just so pseudo . Can't you tell that she's just saying that dress is pretty cause you think so ? Can't you tell that both of you are trying so hard to be "friends" and he's constantly trying to think of things to say so as to spare the awkwardness ? Everyone of us puts on a mask from the very moment we learn to think . Cause in thinking , we think of how we want to be . In our minds , we would say : "I want to be friendly ! I want to be outgoing ! I want to make alot of friends !" And so , we develop from there , putting on a mask to be the person we want to , but aint who we really are . It's like a masquerade .
