Sarita Milliner Poet Light Verse

Behind the Mask

Behind The Mask

Behind the mask is a face of grace,
Enhanced by the lines, of life’s rat race!
A thing of beauty with a story untold,
Eyes send a message that soothes the soul!

Behind the mask hidden from reality,
Is an unconscious mind, full of mystery!
Brain waves quivering with every heartbeat,
Still clinging to life, not accepting defeat!

Behind the mask is a smile of relief,
As a mist fills the room with disbelief!
Lips whispering words softly in ones ear,
To let them know there’s nothing to fear!

Behind the mask is a heart of gold,
Living on forever in an angelic soul!

John Pen November 4, 2015 at 7:52 AM There are always two sides to a coin. What we see is just a tip of the iceberg. Never judge a book by its cover. What more can I say? Well written Sarita Milliner November 4, 2015 at 8:09 AM My thoughts exactly!! My goal is to stimulate the mind through my writings and your comments proves to me that I am on the right track.
