Abandoned Home

in a casual masquerade

we found ourselves

the two of us, crowded and alone

being the only ones exposed

 

we danced to music

the both of us didn't care for

we didn't mind, either, the windows

half open or half closed

 

forgetting our footing

dancing then broken by laughter

i fell into your eyes, at first led my toes

how we flowed, you flowed

 

how a boundary, our ceiling

had fallen once more like shattered pieces

of a mirror image no one really knows

still it grows, and we're all alone
