Secrets




Behind the façade of beauty and strength
A fragile soul struggles to be free, from
The clouds of anguished memories and loneliness,
Hanging over a broken heart that burns feverishly,
For the blissful moments of yesterday.

The smiling mask of confidence and wit
Screens bitter emotions felt when
Love is carried away with the icy wind of deceit
Leaving behind crimson wounds soon to be
Healed by the tender hands of time.

Poise, carefully hides the lifetime of sorrow
Buried deep within dark brown angelic eyes
That floods the dark starry silence
Still seeking comfort
For the absence of yesterdays dreams.

    i think the personal explorations, as this, always make the best poetic endeavors. The ones where you add the stuff of your soul and bleed it out onto the page, the expressions of emotions and feelings seems to bring healing in ways that no other vehicles, or mediums can approach. Blessings and best wishes, ~richard
