Masquerade.

Confused, yet fine, sadness
confined,
Rewind, just a minute, short
and vague,

Irritation surge, breathing down
to calm,
Segregation verge, soothing
sound, just calm,

Mind racing, but fine, sadness
confined,
Refined, just a little, yet still
short and vague,

Saddest smile masked, eyes
closed tight, just
relax,
Its' fine, rewind, just a breath
to tame the mind,

A heartbeat away, yet still, just
still,
Waiting, regardless, unspoken
and nil...
-END-
