My Disguise

My own personalize shroud...

My disguise isn’t physical

Though you see it, with your eyes

You might feel it-- if your blind that is.

 

My disguise

It’s black, and white

Sometimes with pictures

To help it along

 

I’m using it all the time

Like right now.

It alters with my mood

Sometimes bright, others dreary

 

My disguise

Is my writing

Coats things I feel deep inside

 

My disguise.

I wrote this a few years ago, and though I'd just post it. :)

A deep poem, if only more people would look beyond the surface.

I like the poem. Most of us hide our true self. Disguises allow us to show things hidden and far away. I like the photo. Gave strength to the purpose of the poem. Thank you for the outstanding poem.

This is a really cool perspective. I cannot believe that you are only 15. Keep it up girly!

I adore this poem, purely because it brings your writing to such a powerful and emotional level purely by stating that it is a disguise...and that is something we can all understand and relate to, as well as recognise and respect the freedom given to us through the art of expression, which is something you have achieve so well in such a short space of time. I really enjoyed this piece, it's very different, and very creative, I feel.

Thank you for the compliments. I'm glad you can relate and enjoyed reading the poem. :)

Another lovely, personal, piece of poetic art from you. We all use disguises in life, whether physically, or emotionally, etc.. The trick is to someday realize that we don't always need those disguises, that we are able to be who we are and who we want to be, fully and completely.
Wonderful work, Sylvia.

Great word choices here, especially if it was written when you were younger. I think you show a lot of promise, so keep it up! :)
