Behind a Mask

behind a mask, I hide
no one knows who I am 
my deep, dark secrets inside
if I were to tell the world
my horrors, and nightmares
it will be hard to envision
the joy, pain, and heartache
with an accurate precision
put your prejudice a side
and your quick
judgment decision
talk through things,
bring about solution
look deep in my
heart, you will see
that I am just a normal person
full of passion and love
but behind the mask I hide
and no one knows who i am
or my deep dark secrets inside

Please tell me what you think?

    This was very deep my friend. I understand the mask we all sometimes hide behind, we are just people we have a hard time showing our pain and hurts to friends and family. Or we are chastized for even opening our mouths when we try to show our feelings...
    So what do we do? We hide them deep down inside afraid to let who we are out!
    I have learned even through mistakes i thought others made toward me, that the best thing was to take responcibiliy for my part in it.
    Which left me to deal with having to see me first then i could see other more clearly.
    Now that i can see others i have made better choices in my life.
    Hope this made sence??
    Now i can be who i am ...without the mask.
    Trust me anything you have done or been through ...i have probley been there too. We all have our personal wars and battles of the mind.

    Great write as you can see it made me think.
    I think you are wonderful John!
    Take off the mask sometimes let your true heart show!
    hugs

      um

      "I have learned even through mistakes i thought others made toward me, that the best thing was to take responcibiliy for my part in it.

      you are right; Learning from your mistakes and knowing that you had a part in it is the only way to get over the pain that sinks in deep down your lonely heart, but from time to time we tend to avoid accepting our mistakes and hide behind the mask that conceals our deep dark secrets, and that is where we burn out of comfort and the loneliness sinks in bringing shrap pains that are unbearable, and there they fester deep growing irremoaveble roots that always reminds you of that moments

      thanks for your comment Lisa.
