Beneath the mask


I come from shame and self hatred
I usually hide from peoples faces
Normally wearing masks and closing myself off
Those masks are not to come out no matter the pain
No matter the torment, no matter the sorrow,
Taking my mask off will admit that you're vulnerable and vain.

Never take off the mask that hides your deepest truths
But what if i did, what would you find beneath the struggle and the shame?

Well...turns out that i'm tired, i no longer live my life for fear and anger
I want to advance, to fly away until this crumbling mask is no more!
Only by putting one feet in front of the other i will live my journey
 By reaching peace with my own being i would accept the love from others.

So i tried, a fae took me out, sat with me and traded stories until the stars started to fall and the wind stopped howling
She made me look into myself and questioned my fear to be happy. I told her that i was there to listen to her and give her advice as much as i could but i was not able to follow my own words.

Lately i promised myself to never look back, to never surrender and comeback to the void where i almost fell and died. So now just as i did with that fae i'll bow let the pieces of the mask fall so the real me can try to accept what i am beneath the mask.

Floating...nowhere to land, nowhere to stop this endless motion in a stardust sea. I feel lost, my mind is restless, filled with guilty, always racing,  jumping and screaming. Judging what i did wrong, what did i say? what looks did i gave? Was it all a waste? did my time was not important too? That's the curse of this galaxy, everyone leaves after the beginning. With nowhere to go i scream until my blood reaches my lungs. I shout and break my throat. No one is there to see me, not anymore, they all went to their stars . Seems that i was the last to know, i cannot expect diamonds if i can only offer copper. My hands are numb, eyes are heavy, my breath is no more and now i am one with the stardust sea.

Duality

I see a crystal palace where two wolves are facing each other One is white as snow and the other one is black as night Dark necessities emerge from their eyes while i watch They fight and clash to name a victor, they fight for my soul One is the good in me being consumed by the wicked The other is my evil struggling with the the light  Both bite and bark and cry and scream trying to tip the scale One is light, is kindness, is charity, is humble, is warm, is love, is empathy and is truth One is Darkness, is sorrow, is pain, is anger, is suffering, is agony, is regret and is pride Many moons ago i lost my way and i have been feeding both wolves at once I have no balance so i ride the one that's on my mind each day I won't shy away of letting them free but i regret not caring for them As they are my protectors, they are everything that i am  I am no longer in pain, i no longer suffer but i do struggle  I watch each wolf and rememb...
