Find me
I used to believe that
if I kept reaching
and believing
sooner or later
in the palm of my hand
would be my fate
it was
a choice
to leave the hand open
it was
trust
that brought me
to you
... I just didn't realize
my fate...
would be
my heart
         broken
today, fate sits in a box
where the mask was kept
faith, the silk ribbon
in a knot ...
find me, if you dare
under the paper
and glue
where
only truth will ever see
      the real me

I read this three times
with pauses in between
and each time gleaned
more
and I'll just say
I wish I could be this good

I never aimed at reality; I aimed at truth. --Orson Welles

Quite a balancing act, reaching beyond our reach while trying to steady a placid lap holding a mask. Enjoyed the imbalance.

You rock, DDA. If your words are that mask, fit it properly on my face and tie the ribbon to the back of my head!!!

wow I guess we all wear masks.

If your afraid of the dark, then why did you come?
