Veiled Truths

What personality trait in people raises a red flag with you?

A smile that hides a secret ache,
A kindness worn for self’s own sake.
When truth is veiled in soft disguise,
The heart senses where danger lies.

Beyond a Name

If you had to change your name, what would your new name be?

If I had to change my name, I’d stall,
For names don’t hold my truth at all.
I am not a word the world can claim,
But breath and being, beyond a name.
