    -Mask of Sanity-

    She only lives a block away, but in my mind shes in my house...
    Shes in my head...
    Shes in my thoughts...


    How could I have trusted her, this woman so evil..
    Why did I let her take them for a visit that last time...
    I should have noticed something was wrong...
    I didn't protect my kids like I should have...
    Its my fault I didn't press my suspicions...
    What kind of mother am I...


    She knows the thoughts that just passed through my head...
    The ones You, my reader, just read.

    She has taken over my mind, my imagination and my every thought.

    I don't know how she hears what I'm thinking, but she does; and Ill bare her burden of thinking those thoughts later, when she comes to terrorize my mind again.

    I should have kept my children away from her and always in my sight, for this monster of a woman got me...

    She looked into my eyes and smiled, as if nothing would ever go wrong;
    And nothing did, until I trusted her mask of sanity.

    Such anguish of the soul from such a talented poet. It makes me wonder what this person did, though I have my guesses since it involves your children. There are many monsters in this world of mankind that hide their insanity behind their mask of sanity. I should know, I grew up with one. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work.

    Oh my gosh. This is amazing. It keeps the imagination churning while the heart is torn apart because I can feel your anguish, and such torment that is pouring from your words. Wonderful write
