Unmasking Poems - Poems about Unmasking

To unmask a false identity is to identify genuine authenticity. It's painful, no, it kills me, but it's the only way to heal what's deep. Pain in my body, it was a lie to me. Deep regrets built in from long ago. No. Deep pits that have since grown cold. The shame was underlying, and i craved the construct of what...

Awakening in a spiral, a dance of unmasking, Consciousness flows like a turbulent river over the weary shores of the mind, Truth—not a treasure to be found, but a veil to be lifted from the eyes of the soul, In each moment, a layer of illusion melts under the relentless rays of awakening.

In borrowed plumes a masquerade we stage. Thoughts echo doctrines passions are preordained. From broken families where fractured spirits weep Mothers of soulful sorrow With eyes that never sleep. We inherit canvases pre-primed with societal skews. But the brush trembles in our hand Praying for a different magical muse. Why is contentment suffocating and chokes every… Rebellious spark a shroud created from what...

Beneath the mask, where scars reside, A hero's facade, in shadows, I hide. Head held high, though helpless I feel, Smiling to conceal the wounds that are real. I say "I'm okay" to dodge the queries, Flooded questions, drowning worries. Strength portrayed, yet breaking unseen, A wall built high, suffering between. Pain digs deep, soul bleeding sore, Reaching flesh and bones, to the core. Detachment...

When my own apparition appeared it felt like I was a passenger on a metro-line, seeing the oncoming tunnels, the blinking of daylight between the speeding darkness. Dark-light-dark-light, dark-light and my face speeding inwards where a...

When hopes begin to crumble, it's high time to be humble. This virus, Mr. President, now directs your fate. Recognize this simple truth before it is too late, and should it grant you vigor to complete whatever task, before you set about it, please, please, put on a mask....

Copycat Chinstrap penguins I see you everywhere, In shopping malls on buses mocking our precious air, Why wear a mask underneath your chin, Then go about in public donning an imbecilic grin, Maybe I’m missing something the gills on your neck, No I’m sure only fish have them, last time I checked, Tracheostomy covers masking up your tubes, Dimwits...

The Unmasking ~ A Poem by Debbie_Philly THE UNMASKING Lives laced with indiscretions the dance has begun. Liars take the lead my muse sings the song. Deception pierces the psyche wavering on the edge of insanity. The muse has been unmasked reveled is his morbid soul. Contents purged of it’s deceitfulness. Lost love’s obscure, soul mate obsolete in this malignant web of duplicity. Cruel...
