mask to mask
hidden from view
our deepest thoughts
personal feelings

mask to mask
we interact
longing to be seen
fearing to be found

mask to mask
we are hiding
we are selective
we are insecure

mask to mask
our actions
our values
our destiny

my heart goes out to you Edward as I too suffered such issues when my father died and I found out some harsh home truths about how truly mercenary my sister is - no contact now since we were in the lawyers in Nov 2015 - so she could inherit over me and mum:-( the only thing I feel for her is pity. thankfully I didn't lose my muse as starting to write poetry in 2013 has helped me through the worst 5 years of my life.
