Could not figure out as who was wearing the mask,
Whether me or her; not courageous enough to ask...
Both knew; both cared...
Both knew; inside, both cried...
It wasn't that we didn't share,
Most things were shared by just a stare!
Both knew; both cared...
Both knew; inside, both cried...
Beside each other we sat and stayed,
Pretendence of cop-out that we unwantedly made...
Both knew; both cared...
Both knew; inside, both cried...
Without expectation we waited awhile,
But could only put an awkward smile,
Both knew; both cared...
Both knew; inside, both cried...
Absolutely, remained controlled and capacious,
Inwardly berating, but the control simply bodacious!
Both knew; both cared...
Both knew; inside, both cried...
Valuing the feelings was mattering more,
Such bleary and bemused we had never been afore...
Both knew; both cared...
Both knew; inside, both cried...
Unable to resist atlast we avowed;
Each other, how deeply we loved...
Both knew; both cared...
Both knew; inside, both cried...
Already in her tender enclose,
Automatically, the fear of the 'mask' rarified in that pose...
Both know; both always cared...!
Both know; inside, both always cried...!
