The smooth surface Life shining off veneers Nothing gets etched On the fragile surface Meaning has no place Living contrary to life Tenets, there were none Slippery memories Sliding off the edges Nothing lasts Edges are defined Chasms are wider Fathomless depths No warning signs Just on the surface Makes no meaning

On the Surface
The smooth surface Life shining off veneers Nothing gets etched On the fragile surface Meaning has no place Living contrary to life Tenets, there were none Slippery memories Sliding off the edges Nothing lasts Edges are defined Chasms are wider Fathomless depths No warning signs Just on the surface Makes no meaning
