Not A Bride

I wear a veil

to disguise me

and shelter my emotions

It had no color

but it is not clear

its just here

floating 

Look at the sheet

I am happy;

nice;

alive;

lips are curved into a smile;

eyes have a sparkle

But underneath

I am sad;

depressed;

suffering;

smile is turned upside down;

eyes are clouded with tears

I wear a veil

to conceal me from everything

and protect me from feelings

I am separated from you

and you are separated from me

the things veils do

I must be blessed by thee
