The Masks People Share

Life Experience

Everywhere you search,
everywhere you look,
for granted, everyone, you took.

they all say they're happy, all say they're fine.
they're only hurting this broken heart of mine.
they all took different identities,
everyone questioning their sanitizes.

all i see are their masks,
all i see is deceiving my eyes
all their lies
they cut in deep
like salt into my wound it seeps

like on musical sheets,
on each bar...each note is different,
unlike the people i see

all their masks are the same,
all the tears came
torturing me, day by day

soon now it's May,
in the middle of spring?
i do not know, i do not want to know
the pain that resides inside.
is too much to bare,
will there be at least one to share?

one that has no mask
one that can pass my task
the one that can make me forget...
but, everyone has a mask.

That was a powerful piece of ink! The vibe of anger as well as deep sorrow flowed from your words. How often we find masks being worn by everyone these days, right down to the post man who delivers the mail. Who's to say that he isn't really leading duel life as a circus clown or something.

I feel the need to find that one that relates. I'm sure some day such a person will appear in this world. And if you find them. Let me know! Maybe they have a twin brother or sister! *Smiles*

Thanks for sharing from the heart!
