There was no sense of loss for a life that had been lost

More a statement of style over human emotion

No sense of the loss of a soul that’s in passing

Everything held in as worms in a can

A tension that’s held in like a corset that’s too tight

A smile that says I’m ok everything’s alright

A masterpiece of acting keeping everybody sweet

No sense of loss or heartrending sadness

More a duty to be performed a signing off

I feel a sadness for the lack of joy for a hard working life
