The Masquerade Of Love Poem by William F Glennon

Searching within our hearts becomes a struggle.
No matter how hard this lonely game we play.
We climb the highest mountains and peaks every day.
To find those emotions we hunger.
The same feelings we had when we were younger.

We all hide behind a mask that shields us from any pain.
The future's passing us by. Let us keep reaching for the sky.
As we don't know how long before we say goodbye.

Remove the mask and you'll get the love you submit, as you
allow your heart to commit.
