The tears beneath her hood

I wrote this a while ago and never really showed anyone and the girl hiding its me or it was, so here i go..

The Tears Beneath Her Hood:

Hiding in her masking hood,

her feelings coping but not showing,

her pain and fear is awakened;

But hiding deep with no emotion.

Keeping smiles where frowns should be,

hiding scares the eyes can't see,

with the masking hood she wears,

her escape from here, there and everywhere.

The gate she created.

The sword she made.

The armor so rare.

Her heart so scared.

She created a life inside her head,

one only she could excess,

her safety net, her hiding world, 

the only light she has left.

The light she has inside,

she wished could be so bright,

the harmony, the mystery world,

she has only for her mind too see.

She hides away,

never seen,

a whisper here,

a whisper there.

A cry she let escape,

but she keeps under her hooded face.

Her masking hood not straying far,

her heart shattered but not apart.

The last line was a good finisher, almost paradoxical in a sense. I like this

[AKhaus]

hiding your heart is not always safe. i really like your imagery

[Chris A Jones]

Beautiful, and easy to relate with. Thanks for sharing.

[Dolce Vita]

I can definitely relate to this and the feelings that we have but never express. Keep writing.

[Adam Adams]

something very deep, & certainly very dark & sophisticated poetry it is.. showing and reflecting the aches of one's deepest heart throu' the texture of such written-yet-unsaid verses.

looking forward to reading your work!
