Together And Ever

I wonder, you wonder
Let's start a wonder, together

I'll get there, you'll get there
We finally get here, together

Don't worry, be happy
We have each other, together

If you go, hold my hand
I'll join you soon after, we will be together

Our story would never be lost from the memories of others
Our love will go on forever
Me, you, together

A Mask, A White Lie

My customized protection
An initial accidental intent
Now, a practice with ease

A white lying
To anchor my mark of sanity
See the total spin off from my heart's harmony
What a touch of irony
As I hope another would see
This misrepresentation is not my character referencing

My deliberate array of communication
Blame on society an unfeeling pillar
Sometimes on own for self-inflicted torment
Regardless, its dramatic advantages brings my actions to a compulsion
And that,
This misrepresentation is not my character reference...

Struggling to marshal the expletive about to issue from my lips
I kept my face immobile
Trying to maintain a calm demeanor
All of them speak with such forthright authority
All of them cruel beyond belief

I closed the door
Hugged my arms tightly about myself
My eyes wide, darting under bedraggled hair
The froth of anger and violence shook me

'Am I really..'
