People in painted faces
living in quiet repression
sharing a silent depression
unspeakable
Insufferable.
Chained to their false personas by fear
playing pretend, always losing the game
Reality intervenes
And just as soon it slips away
effervescence
a dark fantasy in with all the
characters are frauds.
The world is a stage
the audience knows all the secrets
the actors think they hide so well
