Authors Notice: Its the masks we wear and the acts we put on isn't it? Well, its all that and the people we let see past them, too. :)

And the Curtain Falls

So I know you better

Past so bitter

Sweeter, sweeter, as you grow

Smarter, stronger

A story longer

So grateful you didn’t go

x

So I can’t fake

All you felt

Harder, tougher, as day went on

Happy, cool,

Fooled them all

As your stage was played upon

x

But then again

My scene a hit

Realer, realer, with every line

Faker, liar,

Secret crier

Hurting more and more with time

x

Felt some things

Not nice to know

Colder, colder, with what I knew

Smiling, wincing

Contact; flinching,

Until I started learning you

x

So I know you better

Past so bitter

Darker, darker, as I go

Redder, redder

Scared forever?

So grateful we went together
