Mystery surrounds you
But I have seen inside,
Your quiet style
your secret smile
your presence dignified.

I know you like to hide it
You play your little games
with eager eyes
and subtle lies
you fuel my inner flames.

And still inside there is that girl
unsure of what she’ll be.
so break away
from yesterday
and face the world with me.

****************************************

This came from that

The past but a reminder
of things that we regret.
The days gone bye
that you and I
fell through the safety net.

We live to keep on living
and never question why
with each days light
and coming night
this pattern we deny.

And though each hour offers
a world of disarray,
With pride we fight
tomorrow in site
to break away from yesterday

I really enjoyed this poem and it speaks the truth.  People should not be afraid or try
to hide who they are.  You seem to have good
insight into that and it makes your poem feel more honest.

This was very good. Sometimes being afraid keeps us in our own safe place and in a world we know....as you stand on uncharted waters you are not lost...but just now finding yourself. May you break away and find your tomorrow as yesterday Kevin. :0

Hey, wonderful poem here. I actually had someone say something close to this to me one time...had a goodly amount of impact one me.

"Glory remains unaware of my neglected dwelling where alone
I sing my tearful song which has charms only for me."

A wonderful couple of couplets here Kevin, and I half way expected you to enter the "Masquerade Challenge" as Balladeer?

Nice reading you.
