It can’t be more than a façade
a smokescreen placed over eyes searching
for a way to stop the blood flowing
Nothing more than flashes in the night
neon messages that drown out our whispers
and replace our silent tears with wine
while our glasses remain empty
Shatter them against the walls
and watch the stone crumble away
to reveal the truth we knew was lies—
all a façade at which we marvelled
before this day of turning
and this march together into a world
no longer painted red
