The Painted FaceA Poem by AnamariaI wear this cheerful mask A colorful bright façade To cover the broken spirit That cowers and hides beneath
The tendrils of darkness coil And choke out the once bright light But no one can see the struggle Behind the pretty painted face
And so that life continues The asphyxiated bliss When the soul cries out for help But is muffled by the smile
The artistry is seamless But it only takes a crack For it to all come rushing out © 2012 AnamariaReviews |
