Mask

Contributed by wordsy on Thursday, 17th November 2005 @ 05:48:35 AM in AEST
Topic: MiscPoems






And there in lies the darkness,
behind this mask I wear.
Where hides the shame and sorrow
that it seems I’ve brought to bear.

And there the lonely tears I’ve cried,
for sadness sorry sake.
Are all that’s left of this sorrowed soul
I cannot seem to shake.

And then there dwells the demons,
I simply cannot hide.
And all the fears for all the years
I’ve kept here deep inside.

And so the silent secrets
whispered in the night.
And the thoughts I find, are all in kind
and do not make it right.

So you see, I’ve hidden,
yet not so far away.
Just behind this mask, you see,
is where I want to stay

I really like this. There are so many poems about masks out there that they can become boring, and repetetive. This is different though. It's better written than most of them for starters.

The 'And' at the start of most of the stanza's is good. I like it. It's subtle, some poems which do that just sound... rushed and sloppy. This one is good.

A very creative write, I like how you have described what lies behind that mask.

Great write,
*hugs*

sometimes behind a mask helps for one not to see ,but a mask can hurt as well. not just yourself but others. maybe allow the mask to come off some.
