High above the words we say
The laughing becomes our masquerade
Forgetting the thoughts that thrashed our minds
Remember the pain, we so cleverly disguise
Oh the tears we shared for months
Oh the love we had that once
The fears we left behind
All for the sake of that one forgotten mistake.
Deeper we go, words unspoken
Scared of confessing the reason behind this mistake
Fears of realizing that love we share
Hiding behind the mask of solitude
Oh if only we knew the harm we are doing
Oh the touch you so cleverly try to disguise
Oh the words that seem to be fewer each time
Remember the time you took my hand
Remember those words you once spoke
Yeah remember when we thought it would once work
Why try and hide what isn't there
Forgetting what needs to be forgave
Realizing the truth with in your heart
Trying to persuade yourself into thinking your faults were at stake
Don't look away, don't try and run
When you know you're the one to blame
Realize the mistakes are the truth

Intriguing
I love it. It reminds me of me... which is sad, but it is so hard to capture a person so completely. -
I like how the title of the poem is your name...its a very interesting poem, very deep. It strikes you and makes you kind of just sit back and think.
Well done.

I think this would benefit from you cutting out quite a few stanzas because in the end, you tend to ramble and the point of the poem is lost.

We all without knowing, makes mistakes.
Sometimes it is too late for us to try to fix them.
Sometimes we realize too late the hurt that we caused.
Thanks for sharing and good luck.
