Past Unmasked

Words can be used as a mask
...Love...
...Forever...
...Happiness...
And words can push away
...Trust...
...Love...
If I could burn the pages of masks
Could a new page be written?
Love being love
Forever lasting forever
Could happiness and trust write themselves in the air for us to grab at while dancing on the lines of eternity together
I remember your tender words-unsure if they were part of the mask
I remember your smile...drawing me in
I wondered if I could peel away your tender words and find your heart-etching a smile on mine
But I fear once words are used as a mask, disguising what's truly underneath, they can never be anything different.
...Love...
...How do I ever accept this "word" again...

------- Author's Notes -------

Apologies if this confuses you...that's how the relationship was. Words that were masks of what they mean....hard to explain.
