Oh, I see you now!
Spilling masks & costumes
as you rise, like so much dirt.
Brush them off your shoulders
& stand tall. No stooping
is necessary here,
no hiding.
Step into the light
so your brilliant facets
can sparkle & shine.
Slough off that old, ill-fitting skin,
Exfoliate, buff, polish.
Your tender core, under armor
for so long, is where your
true strength
resides.
