![]() in our mind's eye we fear nothing at all but hidden thoughts spy like a masquerade ball a dream dancing nearby awaiting our fall ... across the miles, touch step lightly, sway distance decreased a voice heard today ... a dream dancing nearby sweet music in play behind each mask of feather and lace, hypnotic eyes an endless face ... a dream dancing nearby the music quickens its pace all chandeliers dim smoky mist appears, sashay across the floor a burning desire sears to touch the dream dancing within music of the spheres it is hard to resist the movement in the air but to exist, our masks we must unbare ... at the dreams insist end this masquerade, if we dare "In life's giving ... love is a gift, such worth living." |

To say I enjoyed this very much would do your words no justice..your words did find my heart..I've let my mask off for a few people only to find myself putting it back.. If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried. |
