Social Mask Two

Social Mask Two

Must we hide
under masks
in order to survive
the mask of others

Must we pretend
that we trust
in order
to not disturb

Must we be phony
plastic and artificial
covered with irony
to make others happy

Must we face
the drama
of actors
and follow them

Social Mask

Social Mask

Must we hide
under social masks
in denial of pure truth
to escape from criticism

Must we cover our ego
as to adapt to this world
whereas our feelings hide
in wombs of enclosure

Must we reject who we are
how we want to exist
to please humanity
and make this world better

Come to Me on a Sunny Day

Come to me

on a sunny day

Touch the flowers

before I go away

Stand in the garden

under the light

 I’ll watch your shadow

dark as night

Feel the breeze

caressing the trees

Waving good-bye

before I leave

Watch the clouds

In the sky

Going away

just like I

As I depart

my  figure with me

Like a ghost

vanishing through the trees

Only my memories

 You will keep

In your heart

 will forever sleep

By the Time I’m gone (reviewed)

By the Time I’m gone

By the time I’m gone
the skies will know why
life passes by
like a star in the sky

By the time I’m gone
will you still be there
waiting away in yesterdays
when there’s no one there

Nobody will say
 why I loved that way
because the life I lived
made me this way

So light my life
even if I’m gone
life sometimes goes wrong
but  tears carry along

Tears are my only hope
When I see pain
Where I see hurt
for all that’s worth

A shoulder to cry on
a fire when there’s rain
would only bring me back
to where I was again
By Lynda Ferrer

Sorry I Was Late

Sorry I Was Late

Sorry I was late

Yes I was late in your life

Wish I’d met you before

So I could love you more

Life has its road

Sometimes a heavy load

Where love is hard to find

and deceptions make time

Wish I could undo time

 I’m so blue at mind

without being able to

be always with you

We don’t choose where to stay

life brings us where

we  are not loved not knowing

someone better is out there

Sorry I was late just didn’t know you existed

Wasn’t on time and missed

The love you bring

The melody you sing

I will always keep  in my heart

The love we once had

Although we can’t be together

Our love is in heart forever

My Soul Meditates (Spiritual Poem)

My Soul Meditates

My soul meditates

on human mistakes

I too am there

in despair

Oh how shallow are dreams

of love and care

Drifting in rivers

 everywhere

My soul drops

Illusions stop

When sacrifice is expected

not usually directed

Oh soul of mine

Please be kind

Understand what loves  brings

like a flower that grows

and a bird that sings

My soul I ask you today

to make me stay

Bathe in love

and not away

By Lynda Ferrer

By the Time I’m gone (song)

By the time I’m gone
The skies know why
Life passes by
Like a star in the sky

By the time I’m gone
Will you still be there
Waiting away in yesterdays
When there’s no one there

Nobody has to say
Why I loved that way
The life I’ve lived
Made me this way

So light my life
Even if I’m gone
Life sometimes goes wrong
But  tears can carry home

Tears are my only hope
Where I see pain
Where I see hurt
For all that’s worth

A shoulder to cry on
A fire when there’s rain
Would only bring me back
To where I was again
