107.

Forever Mirrored in a Hidden Life




Search for truth in gorgeous skirt
With made-up face to hide the hurt
Look for love in four-inch heels
Ignore the pain of what is real
Leave the hate of those who stare
Sing and dance without a care
In beauty’s grasp so pure and true
Find the truth of me and you
Not boy nor girl but in-between
Lie shattered norms now split down seams
Still hid within those boyish clothes
Screams out the girl, which will you choose?

Hidden



Do I exist or just in dreams?
In floating chance and silent screams
Is memory false or true as light?
So dim amidst this lifelong fight

Life in cruelty’s hidden love
With marching time to scarlet dove
Rush to end and lifeless peak
Too slow for memory’s desperate reach

If my past now future leads
To form my life in gentle tears
Why then does she still slip away?
To depths of mind and soul to stay

Did I exist in lifefull love
Or just dart around my hidden dove?
In hated life and clouded dreams

My soul’s soft story gently screams

Thank You



Thank you for holding my tears so tight
Safe and sound in dreamless sight
Thank you for causing my mind to sing
And turn my mind from deathly fling

Thank you for forcing my soul to smile
And save from hell that lonely child
Thank you for living in every dream
Of future’s glimpse of chance unseen

Thank you for saying but not a word
And send your love in silent cloud
And thank you for turning my mind from death
To turn my hell to peace at rest

Goodbye from the love you never knew


Farewell to love left lost in heart
Like marching sunset’s golden chart
Too hard to chase but not to fly
To dreams of past and lover’s cry

Goodbye with tears and love long-lasting
May your heart be always shining
For those you choose to hold you love
Will never turn to scarlet dove
