Catching Your Disguise

You hide behind your concrete wall
Of shameful memories,
Dreading all the things that made you fall
And lose your sense of ease.

An endless sea between your heart and head,
Impossible to cross.
The invisible armies that you have led,
And you're the only loss.

A cave of traded secrets
Is what your body has become.
Every chance that you have missed,
Cheated twice, but never won.

Obscured by all the sacred lies,
Forgotten long ago.
Cause now I'm catching your disguise,
And clearing the unseen road.

I believe in John Lennon because he told me all I need is love, & to me that seems pretty accurate.

Every face can tell it's story, Every name it tells it's tale. Every step can tell it's journey. Every success can show it's fail. Every feeling can be shown. Every word can be expressed.

Birthdays

I have never really understood birthdays. They tragically seem to me just like every other day. You expect this deep change to occur within you when you reach the end of another year of life.
