Hidden

Hidden in the shadows

Just observing the pathos

noticing the colours change

watching all in your range

see the pink bow

collapsing in the snow

watch it all melt

and affect natures’s wealth

it’s a free world

no edges curled

go wherever and hide

but be back before night

a dangerous place to live in

a new chapter

waiting to begin

darkness conquering light

watch the shadows fight

like a dangerous murk

innocent in its work

are you afraid?

Did your happiness fade?

Why are you here?

Are you all crystal clear?

No droplets of rain

Only droughtful pain

Doubtful, you say?

But it’s a moonlit day

Pestering beasts

Stealing bed sheets

I’m just kidding

They’re doing my evil bidding

Take lavender and lemon

And a pinch of lemon

Find stormy grey eyes

Hiding in the skies

Behind sequined darkness

Hiding a seductive likeness

A red velvet mask

On a frightful task?

Are you looking for me?

Do you want to set me free?

Or are you searching for thyself?

Like a long-lost elf?

Look in the gilded mirror

See your flaws clearer

No they’re not hiding

In your heart, they’re residing

In a drawer, embroidered black

Lies a golden almanac

Read its story

Its tale of glory

Can you compare?

Isn’t perfection rare?

Now find the pink baboon

In an imaginary blue cocoon

Fail and see

That you can never compare with me

So now are you lost in the rain?

Or are you looking for me again?
