You Don't Know Me

I'm sure many can relate to this poem. I feel like I'm living that now, trying to maintain a facade.
Excellent.

Here again you have done it. This is such a heartbreaking write about the inner person that no-one really sees. Grin and Bear it.

To see the face you think you know
That it reflects the truth
But do you ever wonder if
It hides the truth from you.

This stanza really hit home. I suppose we can all relate in some sense, but this was an amazing summary of the message. As always you have done an excellent job.

This was very touching i suppose weve all hid behind a mask at one point luvd it

But you don't know the words you say
Can split my heart in two
And words that cut the soul of me
Are words that come from you.

Jeannie this stanza is purely heartwrenching ...

So I must hold you at arm's length
Not letting you know me
It will be my little secret
Wrapped up in your fantasy.

A stanza many will relate to I'm sure ...
Touching- touching- touching read

Take care Jeannie

Jeannie
How many hide behind a mask. Excellent write. Makes you stop and wonder.

You think that you can see behind
The smile that hides the pain
To look into the eyes that hold
The depth of heartache's reign.

This stanza really touced me.
Take care your friend Cindy
