Masked Angel
August 18, 2013
I'm paused, I'm puzzled
it keeps swirling in my head
can you feel the suffering?
and the angel not answering
behind the smile of the moon
among the light of the stars
shed all the gloom
pleaded for acceptance
but the slight smile
will stay forever
although thousands knives
chop the depth of the heart
world forces us
to blow up our hearts
put on spiked masks
against all the truths
all have been sliced off
falsehood will covering
sincerity no longer meant
that's how life's now understood
