There's always more than what meets the eye.
Parallel Lives

There are two lives I live each day
One people see the other I hide away
Deep inside, locked with a key
I give no one that part of me.

I am encased in smiles and laughter
Yet I know that they are after
To touch more than I am willing, to share
My flesh rather than my soul to bare.

And one day when I am gone from earth
These lives will conjoin and a rebirth
Of my spirit will rise like the tide upon the shore
To give me strength, make me whole once more.
