THE MASK OF LIFE

THE MASK OF LIFE

The mask of life
with painted smiles
on faces and places thay
GraceĀ  the world
The mask of life
and those who hide
from you and stand
beside you and hold
out there hand and thay are cold
and thay sold there soul to you
The mask of life will bask in
the sunlight The mask of life
at the end of the day and all
the things you say the mask
comes off from your face
and no matterĀ how horrifying
you look the mask of life will
return the next day The mask of life

The repetition of the line 'The Mask of Life' just hammering away at my soul. I love and fear this write and I got the feeling this was supposed to be read aloud and in one breath...or was it just me who did it? hahaha
Awesome stuff once againĀ

Dear Greg,

Masked feelings, masked tears
Masked life
In the solitude of night removed
But put back on with dawn's first light

Love,
