mask of darkness....great pretender

mask of darkness.....great pretender
darkness
banishes
day
night time
waits beyond
the window
step into
the starry 
space
hanging moon
opal shimmers
find me
under star
thoughts
find boldness
no one
watching
is it safe
now to be
ourself
letting our hair
down
wondering
can anyone
handle who
hides behind
the
mask
does anyone
realize 
how good we
have become
at pretending


a
    life
         a
                           masquerade

I enjoyed the poem, but it was difficult to get through. Your site, although lovely, is challenging to read.
