Thank you for inspiring me to continue to voice my thoughts in writing that appears to be pleasing.
Love’s Masks
Share your inner thoughts, ideas, ideals,
That power your imagination and hails
Down upon you, admiration, envy that entails
You have to choose who needs some derails.
Today, we hide behind our likes,
Our social media personae that drives
Our self-esteem into the grounds
If it’s not up to par with our peers.
Why do we hide?
Is intimacy such a bad ride,
That you need masks to keep all inside?
Or do you soar in flight
Fall, shatter, break, and give only a bite
Out of the ball, then turn it into a free for all?
Love’s power only grows
As love is exchanged and plows
Dissent into an abyss of darkness
Where it’s devoured by happiness
Of love shared and empowers hopefulness
In a world that dictates the reign of the Ego.
