#hides
Those who search for inspiration Flame lies there inside Instantaneous creation You find the place fire hides Do not shush that whispering voice Let the thoughts come rushing in You want to make art You have the choice All you do is just begin

The Place Fire Hides
just thinking back            on my twenties and cracking            a smile for every tree I hollowed            out to make room for a new universe. now, in my thirties, I laugh at windows            stacked on top of Mercury's head as            Venus covers her mouth and hides again.

time flies buzzing around my head
Mask on my face protects me. Hides me. Binds me. Help me to pretend. Puting on a smile Dont put me on trial. You wont win this game. My mask is a cover, A slip, A shield. Its protects me, It helps me. Let me go about my day. Let me on my way. This isnt your issue. Dont get a tissue. I was born this way. Hide away. Feeling, Truth, Lies, Numb, Push it away till it is no more.

God
I opened my closet door and fingered through my masks "Which one should I wear today" I wondered by myself "Today is Susan's birthday, perhaps a happy face" "Though John just lost his game, perhaps a sad one as well" "And Tonya's mom is nervous, perhaps some empathy" As I looked upon my masks to wear, all seemed quite fitting I removed the mask I wore below, the mask of apathy as I slowly peeled back this fleshy molded face a salty barren field revealed its proper place as true features themselves emerged amuck with tears unnoticed by myself

My Second Mask
Though the lamp burns all I see is the brightness before me, yet I never watch the shadows of woe that this light expels. For within illumination there is always things that even though illuminated we shield our eyes from. For every footstep may be seen, but still we tread over the footsteps of others shielding eyes. For we may follow others paths, but there are still stones that are never read upon. For every smooth path hides the weeds, to ashamed to walk upon.

Paths Hiding Weeds of Discomposure
my heart is an ocean unpredictable calm and stormy a blue force that hides thousands of secrets many have wandered out on my untameable seas but my waves have dragged them my love drowned them but you you are the only one that can sail through my heart the only sailor who knows the ways knows what will happen next you know the semantics know the secrets bellow you know what places to approach and which ones are better to stay far and it pains me so much that after months of sailing around you always go back to the land

my heart is an ocean ;
Look with your eyes, And not your mouth for all that, hides will soon be found.

Look
Rambling rivers Bone shivers Vegetation withers The beast slithers Ocean tides Coward hides Avalanche slides Gunman decides Feel bold Know cold Tightly hold Lies sold We all decide Choices collide Friends make war Enemies make amends Opportunity closes her door nightmare never ends. Life is a fickle one For all of us, under the sun. This is for all of us those who share this world, under the sun.

hidden behind those eyes
Oh dear sister. The misery hides inside the house. The one I told you about. The one you forgot. Oh dear brother. Why can't you see the pain. The one I told you about. The one you forgot. Oh dear mother. Why is the monster not gone. The one I told you about. The one you forgot. Oh dear father. The creature is inside you. The one I told you about. The one you forgot.
