The heavy, grey clouds softly rumbled in the sky
Dying away after a long, angry storm
So sorry I had missed it,
but I have what was left behind:
The cold and damp earth,
the streets left empty and bare,
the trinkling of leftover rain,
and the assurance that the sun would stay hidden
I'd really have to thank thy father
for such a beautful day
Although even in this enchanting realm
I can not ignore
the jagged hole deep within my soul
that is intensifying with my every breath

I've been caught up in this reacurring nightmare
After a day of masquerading,
the clearness of the day
would all just fade away
and I'd find myself
walking down the same ghostly street
feeling as though I died a very long time ago

I would muffle my cries
and wipe the tears from my eyes
And although my heart screamed,
my mouth never raged or even cried out
If the door should open during my quake,
I'd hide behind my suited armor
Oh, so very cold
and I thought that I'd surely die
For the pain hurts me so bad,
that I have been dying inside
But never a would a sound be heard,
a tear shed in the company of another,
or a secret shared with any other soul but my own

Now only the inside screams and cries
while I sit here wishing I could release it,
But I can't
My silent surrender has truly become silent
and I am the one that's left to bleed
Gazing into the mirror,
they look over their subject
and still they close unknowing
of what it is they're looking at

I too feel this way at times DE. But somewhere out there someone, will remove your mask and see and love and understand the real you. It will happen. I believe it is so.

The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there IS to celebrate.

Thanks Isis...I don't really have any hope left in me that it'll change but I've gotten used to things being the way they are so I can't complain. I just had the urge to write something and well my current state seemed to be more than worthy of my time. Once again I thank you.

Honey you name it in this life and I have experienced it and then some!! But one thing I have learned and believe with all my being, the sun will shine again tomorrow, more love and joys are coming for all of us

The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there IS to celebrate.

It's pretty scarey when you get used to hopelessness, D.E., but I spent many years there, I also know the strange comfort it offers. I can truly relate to your "masquerade"...wonderful piece.

Wonderful piece Enchantress

Love is an attempt at penetrating another being,But it can only succeed if the surrender is mutual.
