Long Days, Lonely Nights

by SeanAchilleos

It's a sad revelation To discover that nobody is to be trusted Lying tongues Twisted together like snakes in a pit Honesty is nowhere to be found Nowhere do you feel at home Nowhere do you feel welcome Even the grass complains when you step on it You can only keep to yourself Long and silent are the days It feels good when the sun beams through the window But that is short lived Soon you will travel home This journey will require no luggage Your work is complete All you ever wanted was to be loved But love in this world does not come free And you never had the money to buy it
