The Haiku Challenge Day #4 ~ The Flip Side of Emotions



the tears of folly
fall as sorrow’s acid rain
laughter will dry them

 ~0~

valentine heartstrings
severed by enmity’s knife
acts of love restore

I love those masks. They remind me of that old Twilight Zone episode, where people wore Mardi Gras masks that showed their true personalities, and then they couldn't get them off!
What should I type here? The second is too good.. :-)

Someone is Special
