Vulnerability voiced with questions,
searched heavens high and low
for inkling of doubt to resurface
whether soft or a hard hitting blow.
Tracks make indentations illusive
but cannot be covered up completely.
Evidence presents itself incognito
after mask uncovers more discreetly.
Why not just speak up and announce
Truth harbored, recoiled for release?
Snake bites can be venomous to victim
when poison pierces skin’s delicate crease.
Suffering can happen to anybody, anytime
when expectations reap no immediate rewards
yet wounds take longer to heal with help
after tongues~ tip slices vocal chords.
Life rotates, round and round in circles
where Happiness hitched for a single ride
on horseback, bare essentials exposed
and rider chooses to come forward or hide.
