The Mask

If you wore a hat, and where hidden by mask.
Would I know still your face, no need to ask!
Because nobody, but nobody has eyes like you.
I have never seen eyes of such stunning blue.

And if you stood with your back turned to me.
No little clues given, only your back to see.
I would know it's you without a second guess.
Because you're one of a kind and nothing less.

So unique, so beautiful, so caring in every way. 
But I daren't speak these words to you yesterday.
As I also wear a mask, it disguises the way I feel.
Then I won't get hurt as I have nothing to reveal.

Good concept. Uses your emotion, which shows, and is needed.
