Deeply Long





Long lean cool
Cool marble on bare back
Back against the wall against the pillar
Pillar of the community
Community society pages
Pages waiter for another drink
Drink ironically desperately alone
Alone in a smilingly vicious crowd
Crowd pleasing games
Games no one truly wins
Wins losses fails scandals
Scandals spin webs of half truth
Truth is a commodity quickly traded
Traded love for image
Image of the ice queen crafted
Crafted carefully to protect
Protect a heart scarred by cold shoulders
Shoulders knotted with heavy secrets
Secrets that would shatter and cut
Cut ties unbound whip the face
Face the music soft safe classy
Classy lady unapproachable stands
Stands wrapped in smooth cloak
Cloak the fear hold in the loneliness
Loneliness burns deeply

Deeply                Long
