With Borrowed Faces in a Place

With Borrowed Faces in a Place

We are turning around with no faces, 
Just in cases.
Heaven in our places,
Just two faces. 

Screaming out so everyone hears our bases,
 We can't hide our faces.
But truth still chases
Through hidden mazes.

Slow and smoky phrases.
Now we are visible - with our borrowed faces. 
Time erases.
There are no traces.

We are turning around with no faces, 
Just in cases.
Heaven in our places,
Just two faces.

“A hauntingly beautiful reflection on identify, truth, and time. Where faces become borrowed masks, voices echo through smoky mazes, and yet love presence remains eternal even as trace fades away.”
