Mononymously I called for a name
Navigating words through memories
Sorting failed hopes by the thickness of its pain
But by what time have I to stop
To settle for what faith serves thee.

Inequalities of a family
Reaps burgeons of fantasies
More than realities.

As precautions mold happiness
Youth graze from beneath unfinished dreams
For family has lost its made

You looked great tonight.
You seemed to be in your element,
Surrounded by rich people,
You looked rich too.
I’ve never seen you in these types of events
But I guess I had to find out who you are.
The you that everybody sees,
The you for the public.
You looked fantastic in this waistcoat.
I’ve never really liked this outfit,
But it looks good on you.
You were praised tonight,
I know you’re used to it,
But I was not used to hearing all of these persons only complimenting you.
You didn’t see me that night.
Everybody saw me because I was out of place.
I suddenly became a stranger in your eyes.
You invited me,
But not my clothes apparently.
Stay with your waistcoat and your money
Tonight I’m free.
Free of judgements
Free of criticisms
Free of you.
I’ll leave in my dress.
I’ll leave with my heart and my values
Stay with your waistcoat and your shallow mind.
