Looking Through the Cracks
A glance into a lifestyle
Of a person you don’t know
Will give a little foresight
But not everything’s on show
A peek behind the façade
Of someone’s private life
A husband screaming loudly
A timid little wife
A chink between the curtains
A door that’s left ajar
A moment in the shadow
Doesn’t take you very far
Behind the doors well shuttered
Who really knows the truth?
Of what goes on within those walls
Or underneath that roof
Before you make your minds up
Before you turn your backs
Be careful what you thought you saw
Whilst looking through the cracks
