Separated by a Facade
March 11, 2015
Dancing the night away
Downing shots and martinis
Nobody can see
Past her false facade
Into her yearning soul
Punching and kicking
Enclosed in a ring
With cheering and bets
No one can see
The heart that strains for another
Hiding beneath artificial skins
They brush side by side
Not knowing that beneath their cover ups
Their hearts beat as one
Never to be joined
