There are times self can be
and be comforted by other
There are times other as other is
needs my self to be not fully me

It is a gap
filled sometimes with pain
and often with something alone

There is a self without restrictions
that only certain other can be shown
There is a world of other
for whom the self shown is as if performance

It is a gap
filled sometimes with pain
and often with something alone

It is a dance
it is a balance
It is sometimes success
it is sometimes a wish for next time

The gap between
sometimes moves closer
sometimes must be as is
