mask of darkness.....great pretender
darkness
banishes
day
night time
waits beyond
each window
step into
the starry
space
hanging moon
opal shimmers
find me
under star
thoughts
find boldness
no one
watching
is it safe
now to be
ourself
letting our hair
down
wondering
can anyone
handle who
hides behind
the
mask
does anyone
realize
we are
the great pretenders
a
life
a
masquerade
a
life
a
masquerade

Really beautiful and thought provoking. How many live their lives hidden behind a mask! Thank you.

This was great! I think everyone wears a mask at least sometimes....
i really like this one. i've often thought of the masks i've learned to wear to protect myself.
Very good and oh so true!
Lovely, bff. You paint such wonderful pictures with your words. So many people hide under masks. I have at times.

I like this.
So many people wear a mask.
I do not know if I have worn
a mask
But do know in my lifetime I have
been called on to play many
rolls which were not the real me.
Maybe that is a mask.
Thank you for your kind comments
to me :)
wonderfully wise, I'm glad it was fun too!
What a gorgeous tribute to these short days before the wheel turns again at Yule.
i read this and loved every single word : )
