Masquerade
By andhaka
Blemished souls scattered around
Broken angles do abound
Tinted from belligerent past
Genuine sentiment they have masked
Subdued spirits wither away
Eloquent disguises start to decay
Unconsciously living in a masquerade
Lost and alone through life they wade.

Broken angles do abound would be grammatically correct. I like the notion that , in time, true identities wither away, and different guises/disguises cover the trail. A nicely-conceived poem.

Many sleepwalk through life wearing masks... I often wonder what exactly was destroyed in the world to make so many not want to live aware in our world...so many answers I can't find the true culprit. Nice pen, not to lengthy, and flows easily. Welcome to the valley, I look forward to reading more of you - XXOO

Thank you so much, and i totally agree. I think most people don't realize that we're all just hiding behind disguises. Everyone feels alone and abandoned, yet there are so many people around dealing with things similar to them.
