Facade

Prickling hairs reaching out hide the truth.
Thin layers of an outer shell comfort its interior.
Eyes become locked; pupils expand like balloons.
Plastic appears vacant, hollow, and ready to burst at any moment.
A whisper stumbles out of cracked lips.
Peaking inside reveals darkness.
Vocal cords can be seen trembling as they fabricate falsehoods.
Grasp the detached frame to decipher verities unspoken.
To gently remove the brick wall built in between interior and exterior is not a simple task.
Search beyond the tender expression.
Crawl in to the faded voice.
Color outside of facial expressions.
Read between the stuttering articulate of words.
Dissolve the facade.
