Beyond My Reach

Beyond My Reach

A Poem by Walking Despair
"

The mask I wear.

"
Behind closed doors, I see what the world fails to see.
Behind closed doors, I hear what the world fails to hear.

One second..minute...hour...day...night passes.

Behind closed doors, I see what the world fails to see.
Behind closed doors, I hear what the world fails to hear.

It is time..
In the distant far away.

Behind closed doors, I see what the world fails to see.
Behind closed doors, I hear what the world fails to hear.

The mask is removed and the world sees and hears it too.
My silent giggle of triumph.

Hidden.

Behind closed doors, I see what the world fails to see.
Behind closed doors, I hear what the world fails to hear.
