Faces

Tuesday, February 27, 2024


She has two faces  

The one face that she shows the world.

The smiling one. 

The happy, friendly, and talkative one. 

The confident one full of laughter and positivity. 

The face that everyone is used to. 

The other face is different and real.  

The one she can only have on with him. 

The face behind the closed doors when no one can see.

The one when she's alone away from the world.

The real one when she doesn’t have to explain her own emotions.

The face that stares off at nothing or patterns on the floor or drapes. 

The face that cries in the shower, in bed, car rides alone, cries sitting on the couch, or doing things around for house. 

The face that looks nothing like she used to be. 

Others say she looks the same. 

The face that looks strong to the people she knows but cant cope with life.

So she writes to help herself with her two faces.
