My Own Prison

My own prison lies hidden away
Deep inside I am sad to say
Locked away in a cold dark cell
You might say it’s a living hell
To open the door and set myself free
I must search my soul to find the key
The cell’s my sins the bars my pain
I must set myself free and myself reclaim

Lost

I look to the stars deep in to the night
Missing you lonely longing for your light
I am but a lost soul searching for a way
Blind in the darkness longing for the day
Searching through forgotten dreams lost alone
Trying to find the path that leads me home
A hand from the darkness softly touches my face
Deep in my chest my heart begins to race
I know she’s the one I have waited so long
Joy fills my soul the darkness will soon be gone
There's no time or distance that keeps love apart
When people come together and share their hearts

Longing For Home

Longing for home yet far far away
I sit all alone for another lonely day
Dreaming of a time when I meet you
The days drag by Lord what can I do
I know it’s ok that I am only a man
I just long for the day I hold your hand
Sometime soon we will see that day
When our hearts come together of this I pray
You’re in my heart I will never be alone
Patiently waiting for me to get home

angel

Angel in heaven take me away
Lord how I wish that I could stay
Of all the stars in the night
You are the brightest you are my light
For the rest my days however many I see
I know in my heart we were meant to be
And as I pass on to a better place
I pray to the lord to see your face

The Mask

The mask I wear is just an illusion
Put on with haste to cause you confusion
I hide behind it all my shame
When I look through it you can’t see my pain
The mask I wear is surreal
For with my true self you could not deal
The demons it hides deep within
Those unholy creatures are my darkest sins

About this poem:
This poem is about the mask everyone wears witch hides their true self. I hope to meet someone who I can be my true self, take the mask off, I would like the person I meet to be able to do the same. it's all about honesty.
