We Are One

I am the boy,
who holds a secret;
behind the scars and tears,
but I'll never show it.

You'll never know it.

I am the girl,
who doesn't fit in;
with hidden truth and fears,
living a life of sin.

It's all a lie.

I am the man,
facing my own past;
remembering the dreams,
of what I once held dear.

All those beautiful nightmares.

I am the woman,
who embraces the man;
shielding him from the world;
hiding him within.

He hasn't seen the light.

The man and woman,
they may argue at times;
over who was right,
one opinion was the truth.

The other a mask of the night.

Safe in their own embrace,
they make their way through life;
and sometimes things go wrong,
life was so hard to bare.

I need you to be strong.

The woman is a porcelain mask,
the man is only a broken heart;
how can they tell,
of how they came about?

She is the lie,
giving a shield to hide behind;
for he cannot face the world,
when his own is turmoil.

His world blissful with fantasy.

Sometimes it is difficult,
but will always be confused;
one mistake may break them,
tear them apart - undone.

For the man and the woman are one.
