Shadows of Deceit
Folder:
[2005] Melancholy I hide away from the world
In my solid circle I stay
I remain out of the shadows of deceit
I wear a mask so the world can’t see, what lies inside me.
I masquerade my inner self, from the rest of the world.
In this way I don’t have to reveal the tears
Cascading from my eyes
But deceivers try to tear my mask away
They want me to reveal all inside
To expose my deepest and darkest
They spread their black shadows of deceit upon me
They intoxicate me with their rage and hate.
They overpower my mind and soul
Damn this is a GREAT poem. I love it, and I do this all the time.
It was like I was reading my inner self when I read this.
Great Job.
