A queen upon her throne
Nose high and eyes scanning
Observing quietly
The throws of commoners before her
A common girl
Hiding, blending in with the walls
Piercing looks at the ones around
Too scarred to be seen
They both are alone
They both want to be seen
Too much bares on them
With overwhelming responsibility

Reminds me of the prince and pauper tale.
Nice and concisely done, heavy with meaning!

Thanks, Mark. Was feeling the duality of both characters as of late.
