Thoughts of A Fox......
a poem by Rynde

I live in my inner shadow

Beside my unebbing tides of woe

Eternally frozen in an icicle impossible to thaw

The person I am is not who you saw

Hidden from the world is my own inner darkness

To others I am my glory, nothing more, nothing less

A black mask taints my face every dawn till the night

Never have I needed words to ressurect my sad plight

I know pain when I feel it, betrayal when I feel it

My whole life I've spent running from lies and deceit

Now I ask you the question so many times asked of me

If I don't want to lose, why never do I flee?
