Masks

Masks

I see before me a child of Egypt
Her face hidden behind a mask of gold
Her eyes though her eyes
Haunted by visions so very cold

In the night they came
Reavers!
Faces covered by masks of Ebony
To take from this child all
She held so very dear

Slaughter, Massacre, Chaos
A house asunder
Years to build
Destroyed in but a day

Faces uncovered by the slip of a
Mask
Behind the masks of ebony
they hid their shame
Friends they had claimed

Uncovered now the truth of their
False claims no friends were these
A cold blade found this innocents heart
Forever she swore to wear this mask

A mask of gold to hide her pain
To hide the stain of her tears
One final oath she swore
To return upon these decievers
All they had done tenfold
