Poem 26: The Truth Inside of You (second version)

This was for a contest based on a photo

 

 The Truth Inside of You (second version)

I can see the truth inside of you
written deep between the lines
displayed for those who care to see
what is real within, beyond those eyes

Anyone can pretend
but the world is not a show
playing a part is not what we call life
(I'll pick up the pieces you forget to hide)

There is a truth deep within
that shines through the holes of your shell
enough light to lead me through the dark
So I will never give up - trying to reach your heart.

Poem 31: Waiting

Waiting You stand, at the door of myself. You wait, knowing I know. You heard, my voice acknowledge... But now, there's no sight of me. ...
