She was nothing but common
Until she donned the mask
How ironic, no one could see
The one who was hiding
Perhaps in plain sight
Could’ve, at any time, been me
Makeup didn’t change her
Simply, she was the same
How iconic, she had become
Kept them guessing all the time
The fools, they’d never know
How absurd, and oh, how fun!
They fell at her feet, this maiden
Clung to her, day and night
Seemingly, couldn’t get enough
Outside, she laughed, and toyed
But inside, she was different
From behind the mask, she’d rebuff
January Writing Prompt – She was nothing but common until she donned the mask – Day 16/31
