Don’t Look

I draw the shades
hiding quietly
in a darkened room
Pen to paper
as guilty thoughts
fill the page
Knowing I am wrong

I clothe myself
in a garment of silence
Blinders in place
that I may not peek
through the window
and confuse innuendo
with reality

"confuse innuendo with reality"  

Now that is one of the most TRUTHFUL statements i've ever heard.  Something we all do..and you know sometimes we want that more than the reality.

I love your work

yes my friend, I sit in my apartment with no windows, true. no windows.
It's in side a big old building, and I'm in the middle. haha
I don't need blinders, there's nowhere to look.

 I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
