The Façade
Shannon Gambino ~ April 11, 2016
Limiting his thoughts
Resisting his desires
Retaining a semblance of control
Fortifying his wall of perceptions
Her smokey image wafting through his subconscious
Smudging his ideologies with a hint of sage
Tipping his balance of expectations
Her free spirit floating gently around him
Greeting him in his own territory
Her embrace displacing the foggy façade he is lost within
Holding on to her momentarily, enjoying her touch of reality until …
Succumbing to the beckoning familiarity of his shadows
Maintenance of the ruse seemingly easier than the truth
