As the princess -not queen- of facades I can confidently make a small assuption about them... they are not constructed out of thin air... most facades are not constructed after careful planning as to what would suit them best and some people are simply too passionate to be hidden by mere facades. Sometimes, a lot but not all the times a facade isn't a facade actually but it is a manifestation of what one wants to be if his or her emotions were not in the way. You do want to smile and laugh and joke just because it would be such a better place to be in than screaming in rage. You do want to help somebody else when you'd rather curl up in a corner and weep for your insulting specimen of a life because other people's problem are usually a welcome relief from yours.
You can make believe with everyone, including yourself, that your life didn't crash down into a million hurtful peices. As a friend once told me if you paste up a smile long enough it sticks. If you pretend to be light hearted long enough then for awhile you actually become light hearted.
And if you decide to show someone what lies on the other side of the facade remeber that they won't forget it. They'll might constantly, continously bug you about it until you wish you never told them which is why most people don't do so in the first place. but once in a blue moon if you come across someone like my self who ,blessed with an expressive face and eyes could not lie ordinairily, figured the only way she could make anyone else believe something was to believe it in herself. And I know with the uncanny sense that most people know that we are not alone in this vast universe that there are more people like me...
We'll pretend with you, we'll ignore whatever you want us to ignore until you don't want us to. We'll still be here when you want to fix it, when you don't want to put in the effort in holding a facade up any longer, when you simply want to hide from the rest of the "cruel, unkind, unfeeling" world and we'll respectfully look the other way while you put the peices all back together. You have an option... you could either rot behind that facade and patch it up with new ones or join us... and we'll teach you how to live both lives and enjoy it...
