A Window To My Soul

The eyes, it's said, are the windows to the soul
But I once had my shades pulled down
A mysterious individual difficult to figure
Masqueraded around as a clown
Always been known as a jester at heart
But some say it's a cover, a facade
To hide this feeling of insecurity inside
Wouldn't allow my soul unclad
Well that most certainly used to be true
But this site has allowed me to be me
Under cover of this protected environment
It's allowed my true self to be free
The truth will out it's always been said
In my case it's proven to be so
I owe my appreciation to this fabulous site
And to Cathie, my wife, my soul
A new found confidence after many years
Not the person I started out to be
Feeling of freedom expressing my thoughts
Nonjudgemental, a feeling of free
The eyes, it's said, are the windows to the soul
No truer words have ever been spoken
P-Soup has allowed me to always be me
My long silence has now been broken
