Songs Of The Soul

She hid herself,

Beneath a mountain

of reality

Shielding her tired soul

From judgemental glances,

Hiding her voice

From the scrutiny of

Hyprocritical lenses…

Finding solace

in the warm shelter of

her dreams-

Words that defined her

Rhythms that completed her

Poetry that kept her sanity alive.

She hid herself

Beneath a mountain of lies

Shielding her sanity

From hard hitting realities,

Hiding her scars

From opinionated morals and compassionless pities,

Finding solace

in the warmth of the home

inside of her heart-

Words that accepted her,

Rhythms that walked long roads with her,

Poetry that kept her dreams alive.
