Behind The Mask ... ~Marge Tindal~ 1999 On your face a smile, for the world to see. I look behind the mask, a wounded bird looks back at me. The cracks beneath the surface allow me to dive to the depths to reach you. To the soul beneath the cool exterior I delve and find... a heart that is breaking behind the mask. You have no need to hide, you can't do it anyway, for to get to the real you, your mask I strip away. Behind the mask, the tender heart, bruised, but not broken. I give you now my strength, my love... it's yours for the taking. Come little bird, I will mend your wings. We will fly together to more beautiful things. Behind the mask, I found your heart ... Fly little bird, fly into mine. ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Lots of wounded birds out there, if we each take time to help them fly ... what a wonderful thing it would be. Sometimes, it's not easy to reach in when others are cowering ... but we must. Thanks Denise, Hoot, Seymour and Severn ... for looking into my heart. ------------------ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Oh, Marge, this is just beautiful, it is just so full of love and healing. I long for someone to say those words to me, I've been a caged bird for far too long~ Take care, Melissa~ |

Oh, Melissa~ Glad to see you dive into the archives for this one ... Honey, I hope you find someone to open their arms to you ... it's also good to be the one who holds others until they can also fly. I know that sometimes it seems as though your turn to fly won't ever come ... but it will, dear ... it will. And I hope I'm here to watch you 'lift-off' !  *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
