Stumbling.. wandering through the darkness alone,
grasping for something,anything,
reaching out,longing for someone.
Bitter cold.. all encompassing.
A soul afraid.. crying out in the night.
True beauty,
scarred.. hidden by the sufferings of the past,
a heart soiled, a spirit fractured.
The emptiness,
the need to be.. a mask.
Here i am.. look at me,
hold me.. love me.. want me.
A brief respite,
a moments relief from the pain,
suddenly, the mask shatters.. the peace no more.
Continuing.. so tired,
one shatters.. another replaces,
the never ending facade.
True Joy.. Happiness.. Peace,
always at a distance, forever out of reach...
When hiding behind the mask.
Very nice.
I love this poem, I can relate to it alot, and it is very easy to get emotions off of it just by reading it... Excelent work...
