Private veil

Loose lines 6

Loose lines 6

1.

You were the one born with the pain of a soul,
The soul of a lonely body that someday will die,
Heavenly as you are, that doesn't continue on.

2.

Writing is like being someone else
Except with our own stories
In someone else's voice. Music is a private
   veil.

Poetry can be the art of discovering such truths, don't you find?

Possibly...for me writing is like a sweet shop...a way of conveying a million different things in a million different ways whilst still leaving the reader( should there be one) completely unsure as to the truth of the write. We can all be anybody we choose each time we write...and write anything we choose. It's all smoke and mirrors isn't it...which can also possibly contain every truth...or none  😊

I like the cut of your jib. Here, here. Interpretation remains King, or Queen, as it were, in your circumstance.
