Layers Peeling

Layers peeling,
exposing feelings.
Leaving so much room for speculations,
starting to wonder of the true intentions.
To wish one could change their thoughts,
to fight a fight so many have fought.
The bliss and blur we follow through love,
sometimes it is our need to care for ourselves that we lose sight of.

(2014)
