Laughter's Shade

In old glory the past wanes subtlety
Expending itself in its only possible way
My brain was left in that common place
Awakened, Disguised, yet far away

If you would dare to see my face
unmasked from the disguise you given me
Each shade would tell a truth
In all earth's wise dignities

As I undress myself of old layers of unconsciousness
A women has grown to redeem herself
No longer suffocated in fear
No longer suffocated in longing
No longer suffocated in past desires

Laughter's shade covers my face
enveloping my very soul
and being

And now the sun is breaking
