Beneath fabric, we hide our silent screams,
Expressions veiled, in a world of dreams.
Eyes speak volumes, though lips stay sealed,
Emotions masked, but never healed.

Shadows dance on covered faces,
Hints of smiles in hidden places.
A world apart, yet close we stand,
Unity forged in this masked land.

Whispered words through cloth and thread,
Unseen tears where fears are bred.
We navigate this altered space,
Seeking warmth in a masked embrace.

Hope lingers in our covered gaze,
Dreams of days beyond this haze.
Until then, we wear our shrouded guise,
Holding strength behind our eyes.
