Social Masks

As I logged in to my Facebook account
I contemplated which mask to put on this time
What should I write to garner appraisal and validation of friends 
Should I go with an inconvenient truth or a convenient lie, I contemplated
Then I remembered people don't want to hear truth as rightly quoted by Nietzche
It might destroy their illusions and nobody wants that
In the end, as always settled with a convenient lie reassuring accepted beliefs
However, deep down I am tired of conforming
Maybe some other day I thought when I will cross the Valley of Despair
