No One Lives Their Life

Laughing and dancing Entertaining thoughts of happiness While masking the loneliness within- Afraid to unveil the fragile soul Behind the tear stained mask So you keep laughing and dancing Waiting for the chance to reveal one's true self In this masquerade we call life

That is so true. And the sad thing is, we can never reveal our true selves. Great poem, Jan. Keep writing!
