You, And Only You

You

It's time to erect walls

From the world when it takes its tolls

Shut away from society

From it's pretty, ignorant notoriety

Away from bad judgement

Towards the silent Implement

Of a world that's alone and secluded

Into a darkness where you are included

Shun away from the load

Disappear inside your Invisibility cloak

Their problems cannot be yours

Let the burdens they carry become their corpse

Your coffin does not belong in dirty foreign soil

So let their rotten carrions become their turmoil

Slide into the icy caress

Of cold bedsheets and gilded duvets

Stay inside your refrigerated home

Let the sweetest dreams welcome you in the dark alone

Quite they'll be the voices outside your house

Don't pay them your attention, sleep safe and quietly sound

None can surpass your beauty, none can understand it

You're an Angel whose image is clad in gilded wit

Rest easy against those who shun you away

Whose faces are built like bear traps in a twisted play

Like morbid statues of contorted appendages

At least you don't hide in see-through bandages

Mounds of riches and piles of gold

Experiences amount to nothing you are told

None of them can beat your splendor, they walk out the door

Lavishing in castles like kings and queens

You have plenty of yourself, unlike many who leave.

When all is said and said is done

You are your own castle which is always fun

When none will meet and none will talk

Don't forget to look at a mirror, show a big smile, before going out on your walk
