    Stripped
    I am a lady who wears a disguise.
    This whore who protects me is beginning to fail.
    Realizing the error of my ways, the mask is lost.
    Beneath this costume, lies a truth.
    Halloween is over, I feel naked.

    So this whole thing is about halloween? Or is it just being used as a symbol for your pain? Interesting.

    Very good. I also like the last line, particularly after the first.

    Very nice indeed - brevity with absolutely nothing lost. Well done, keep it up.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
