Can't shout. Can't cry. They'll hear you and ask What's wrong. Wrong? Nothing's wrong. My mask fell off... The wrong people saw the real me. What now? Now? Now we start over. We begin again. Swear to be real, The mask's already gone. Gone? Who's gone? Every part of me is here. And you? I don't know you. But maybe that's just as well. Well? We're all well. Well and fine. We'll just put our masks back on... Until we can be free again. Among the stars... |

I don't exactly get what you're trying to say in this poem. Are you expressing hate? or love? or what? I thought the poem was good it just wasn't clear to me. |

"Among the stars..." I liked how you ended with this line, makes you think beyond to what happens after you stop reading the poem!(At least for me anyway) Joy |

it is very hard to take off the mask.... when you take it off for the wrong people it makes it even harder the next time....but your rite one day we will be free again.

I must admit I am somewhat confused here. Is this saying people saw the real you and didn't like it? Well? That happens!!! Interesting work if you just clear this up we'll all understand better..

Great job...i'm just a little confused though. I do kinda know what you mean though. Good job, again!!! Love is our greatest weakness but when it's found, it's our greatest strength. |

I don't know what I was describing here... whether it was happy or sad... Sorry I can't clear it up, but I don't know what I was talking about. Life, maybe? Who knows. The words just sort of... came. |

Hope~ If you need to cry then let it all out.If you need to shout do it really loud. Who cares who hears ya. Sometimes we let the wrong people in our lives and let them see the real us.That happens and we get go on. It don't really matter what others think. Sometimes being real is hard but its whats best.The real person will come out anyway.better sooner than later. The people that we think we know we often the 1s we know nothing about. Don't hide yourself again the real has been seen. keep it out ~Angie |
