When You Took Your Mask Off
There was a time when I trusted everything you said I had believed you hung the moon and stars up in the sky Gladly, would I have followed you to the ends of the earth

Unshed
Tears that did not fall Bottled up in your scarred heart Those I shed for you ********************************* This senryu came from a line I penned in my Through The Lens Challenge story/poem wherein I told the true tale of how a photograph I took came to be. That tale is a heartfelt journey through the halls of memory about the power of True Forever Love. Writing it affected me personally as did the day it encapsulates.
