Question: Will you contemplate six lines!?
When the final curtain falls in place
It overtakes her unawares—
The harlequin unmasks her face
And, trembling, drops her tears!.
That heavy heart kept a silent pace
And has followed her all those years!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The mask becomes a friend, a lover,
so close and yet a leech,
draining color from her face,
leaving a pale reflection of color not known,
the painted sky, the clear eye,
not sight, blindness!.

The heavy heart beats,
the anvil on which reality is smelted,
following, dragging, holding back
the maskless face,
a terrifying grandeur
all the more worthy of love!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

we live in our own world in our own entity
yet few know that each human being is dual in personality we show a face to the world which is not our real self, we only know what and who we are and only towards life's end we muster the courage to acknowledge our real selves!.
our painting hangs on the wall then we know what we actually were!.

Always present a happy face - do not let your sorrow show!. If you have suffered a love thats lost - do not throw a tantrum - just let them go!. Why do we hide our feelings so!? To add less grief - into a world - that is already overflowing in sorrow!.?Www@QuestionHome@Com
