My Veils

I’m not just what you see

There’s another one lurching behind

And yet another behind that “me”

With a separate heart and a separate mind

There’s another one lurching behind

My veil which is a blatant lie

With a separate heart and a separate mind

All my personas, cleverly entwined

My veil which is a blatant lie

I drape around and I hide

All my personas, cleverly entwined

I conceal my other side

I drape around and I hide

The layers of my veiled self

I conceal my other side

So deep, none can delve

The layers of my veiled self

Will forever remain a mystery

So deep, none can delve

For I ain’t just what you see

There’s another one behind that “me”
