masquerade

Each day you wake
as the sun comes up
while you get ready
for the day to start.

Each day you work
as the clouds drift by
while you work so hard
for that weekly check.

Each day you breathe
as the rain falls down
while deep inside you wonder
where you are going.

Each day you smile
as the people pass by
while you hide in your world
not ready to live.

Each day goes by
as you walk through life
while wondering
whether someone will come.

Each day I sit
as you dance through life
while wondering when you'll open up
to all the possibilities.

Each day we talk
as your heart forgets
while thinking
of our futures.

Each day I sigh
sa the night takes hold
while waiting
for you the next day.
