The Company You Keep

Now, you have your likes and your numbers.

The followers' company that you've always counted on.

And I'm left counting the following association,

Where you seek the likes of me.

But, you've acquired the reverent relations you sought.

Are your companions really genuine?

Or are these affiliations something that is bought?

Under the aegis of forged fabrications?

Sometimes, I wonder if you still feel unaccompanied.

Or if you are sacrificing your authenticity.

Do you ever miss me?

Or are these prodigious people efficient?

Why is it that my coalition,

Is so deficient?

Why are our meetings kept in secret?

Am I only met to satisfy a kiss?

Because here I lie, in wake of these questions.

While you deny the truth from those that question.

Now I ask for true love,

And you assure me with the same undeniable question.

Yet, for some reason,

I feel like the only one breaking.

Without rest,

I'm relentlessly trying to pick up the pieces of my aching heart.

Because I'm wide awake with my hurting insomnia.

While you're falling sound asleep,

With a sound mind

and a restful heart.
