Composed 3/6/16
Description: Just to write something… Here’s something inspired by today’s Daily Prompt.
You may see me
Through crisscross shadow lines
White pointed fences with curving ivy vines
I’m hidden in slivers, shoulder height in every crowd
You’ll truly only see me when there’s no one else around
Catch me alone, and you only see a guise
Bare, marked up skin or makeuped in disguise
My smile, is it deceptive? My frown is it a lie?
My laughter is easy, but then so are my sighs
So few have seen an unbounded me
Unleashed in the sunshine, wandering, free
Without a mask of sick or sweet
Even uncovered I hide behind screens
A really intense and sensitive poem, Well done!

What can I say? I particularly love its eerie tone…

I guess it is pretty eerie… I didn’t think about it much when I was writing it, hehe. I guess that happens when you write stuff at night…

Sometimes it’s the stuff you don’t think much about that turns out best :)

I think that is really true sometimes. I think for me the stuff I don’t think about too much is just really emotional stuff that just comes out… and I tend to love those the best.
