Fabric of Denial By Paul Wilson Thin fabric covers my being allows me to see out without reveling the real me Two sides to the coin of chance revelations expectations no one can see Explore beneath the surface if you dare visions covered within the fabric of skin Light of eternity shines just out of sight pathway littered with secrets and sin Jester hides behind mask of smile hiding frown from eyes of pry Raise the shroud release your heart tell tears of yesterday goodbye Mirror reflects the outer you that all see as the real you hides beneath the skin Face of a fool looking back in denial refusing to face the truth again I try to break the chains that hold me in their grasp Remove doubt and fabric of denial open up the wound release the clasp Marble’s in ring of dirt shattered by the king of lag Fractured by contact pieces of mind put in a bag Depression is a fabric of denial built by us with the mind Tear it down one day at a time beneath fabric of denial happiness you will find ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |

"Depression is a wall of wonder built tall and strong by the mind Tear it down one day at a time beneath fabric of denial happiness you will find" Great write and good advice. JL Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: |

Man, you are so fulla riddles these days! and I'm giggling here--thinking, don't open my closet Paullie-sweets--there's enough scraps of denial in there to keep a few hundred quilting bees going! You are delight, I love to read you as you continue to grow in your craft. Clever little metaphor here, denial as the cover up and comforter too! Stay sweet mah lil praline! |
