Hope In Emptiness

He sits on the porch as the sun rises Its warmth relaxing, beneath his many disguises Which mask will he wear today Which will keep anxiety at bay One that feigns emptiness with laughter? Something to shield the heart from disaster? The birds begin their morning song Thoughts on the aimless future come along Will he meet the one who will make it all end Someone that won't require him to pretend His hand reaches stretching out twoards the sun Hope drives his heart to find her, his loved one
