When I don't wish to write of love
the words will flow, can't stay within.
I will no longer write of truth
or longing, real of love again.

My words are all of fantasy,
I lost all faith in real, you see.

A day lost out, on wasted feel
Once up, now down, the slide comes strong.
My written words will tumble out,
Nonsense at times, or even wrong.

But whose to say, who knows me best
To know my feelings, or all the rest...

No one who knows me, really does
They see my outer face I show.
I'm masked, in hiding, just on stage
Role playing, but now it's time to go....

"The worst prison would be a closed heart".
...Pope John Paul II

This is very good.  We don't always have to be bearing our souls when we write.  I like this poem.  Joyce
