Love In The Distance

Day and night
I think and dream
Of him.
His voice whispers
Love sonnets
That hug and kiss
My soul.
My home is where he
Resides.
I lie awake sometimes
Gazing at the moon
And stars
To restart this movie
Of him and I.
Two lovebirds with
Kindred souls,
Loving,
Playing,
Laughing,
Like lovers do.
When the movie goes off
I'm left longing for him
From a distance I hear
Him calling me,
I see his face awaiting to
Kiss me.
His eyes expresses a
Mutual feeling.
What I wouldn't give
To touch him,
Look in his eyes.
All I have is his voice,
Pictures of him.
Physically, he's so far
From me.
Spiritually we're close.
I long for him until
We physically meet.

Masquerade

Who is who?
Who's with who?
Who knows who?
They wear a mask
Covering up their true
Identity and insecurity.
When they approach you
With a warm greeting
Is it genuine?
The compliments and
Terms of endearment
Are they genuine?
It's almost shocking how
Quickly those smiles fade
Away,
How the compliments can
Turn into a dis.
I use to wish to dance along
With these unique beings,
Instead I embrace my
Individuality and party
In my own world.
Every mask has a different
Shade,
Different mood covered
By the mask they wear.
Their true identity can't
Always be hidden,
It will be found.
Shakespeare said "to thine
Own self be true."
Unmask yourself and
Embrace the real you.
