MasksMasks
I feel so alone,
No one truly knows me,
I wear so many masks,
That sometimes I don't know myself.
I keep everyone at arms length,
So no one can get close,
This world will never know,
The things I am capable of.
This has always been the way,
Since I can remember,
My true self has never surfaced,
Always a mask on my face.
These masks have kept me safe,
They have harboured my deepest thoughts,
Shielded my mind from harm,
Kept my core protected.
But to never allow myself,
To exist in this world,
I not only deny myself to the world,
I deny myself to my own being as well.
There are days when feel,
That I will never emerg Masksin Poetry

Thunder cracks the sky above,
Lightning strikes the ground below,
The world cries out,
Another choice has been made.
As our choices shape reality,
A new world emerges,
Where the opposite choice,
Is made.
This happens everyday,
As a choice is made,
The long road becomes forked,
Signposted "This way to happiness" "That way to happiness".
Every second,
Every choice,
Every consequence,
And still no happiness for me.
I have tried,
To make all the correct choices,
But to no avail,
My life is hell.
As I wander these lonely roads,
All I can do is dream,
Dream of a life better than this,
The hell that is my life.
