About the Poem
Written on February the 2nd, 1988, it was projected as a Study upon the psyche of a Person obsessed with Power, who disguised his True-Self in order to get to his not-always-legal purposes. This one has always had an acceptance on publishers... I really don't know why. And it is one of my most elaborated teen-era Poems.
Disguise |
by Edilberto González-Trejos |
It is said that you're losing disguises I've never seen but, should any man cry enough just to make-believe he's as keen in lies as a never-had love? You're actually sucking from a mirror all those images only to pretend that there cannot be anything but those sultry pages the ones that say that you're the One supposed to be... Ah? So you say... "I have no faith in those crowds" when they're the ones that've put you on the clouds, you'd rather face the facts... and see... Realize you've never known what it takes to be free. You're a disguise in disguise can't break free, can't realize!! What a death in Life!! |
