In Search of Self
Location
A mask, a guise
A role to play
Beneath them all
A vast array
Of people, thoughts,
Of all clichés
Another piece
To my display
The mind
A treacherous place to be
Of wonders, truths,
A mystery
A smile in place
For all to see
Behind this veil
A tragedy
With every tear
Her heart grows strong
And every step
She moves along
Each passing day
Another song
Another story
To add on
Although she hides
All that’s inside
The wall she builds
With her disguise
Her story’s not all sad
You see
There’s many treasured memories
Her heart, her soul
All locked away
All treasures
For a rainy day
Protected from
The world she stays
Until she finds her home
One day
