They mask the real, pocketing the once upons
in a library of thought, embracing the hungry
to better the dream.

They ride the waves, the tide calling,
captured by the spray
of an understanding mist.

Surrendering to the seeds of caring,
they beach themselves in the shadows,
living for the moment.

Consumed by the dance, blinded by the setting sun
they mirage their feelings
though somewhere along the way, they are

lost in the between.

This is very true! Alot of people hide
their feelings thinking that no one will
know. I sure understand this one. Although,
I am not one to hide my feelings, as a rule.
Well, maybe I do it more now, than I use to.

People have to be real with themselves, then with one another, love has to be real in order for it to work, if not, it is all a sham...then you have wasted time on your hands.

Thought provoking penning...

Bruce, thank you again for "revisiting" my They.

LeeJ, so good to see you posting again!

Oklahoma Rose, it's not so much as hiding their feelings, Sue as it is the untruths told and even believed just to satify a need.

Margherita, thank you.
  
A Romantic Heart, real to some is a fantasy to others, especially on the internet.  Sometmes love is just a game. One always hopes for the real, though.

Ida, thank you.

Lori, the beach always has a special meaning to me although I haven't had a chance to go back. I have a wedding to go to on the beach at Cape May on July 4th. I will be thinking about you. I hope life is treating you well.


Bill, as always  I appreciate you.

unboundpoetess, thank you for your response.

Once again Bruce, I thank you. I was thinking about She and He and how it might end with They.
