Smoke and Mirrors
By Tom Wilcox
Like smoke and mirrors,
She disappears;
Never knowing time or place.
When times get tough,
She's had enough;
Too much for her to face.
Hard to know,
When she will go;
Like a white cloud in the sky.
Does she see,
What it does to me;
Never even says goodbye.
Without a tear,
She'll reappear;
Knowing that I'll take her back.
I just don't know,
How she can go,
On jumping from the track.
Like smoke and mirrors,
She disappears;
What more can I say.
It saddens me,
Every time I see,
Her up and walk away.
Doesn't she know,
I love her so;
She brings me so much pain.
Can't she see,
What she does to me;
She's driving me insane.
Like smoke and mirrors,
She disappears,
But now we're finally through.
Goodbye my friend,
I can't depend,
I can't depend on you.

Same here Tom, although much of my writing stemmed from trying to make sense of the madness of my childhood, it took me years before I ever felt comfortable enough to share the inner me to complete strangers. That actually helped me. I will have to go look through your gallery and read your writings now...
