All Told

It started with shaming,
Words, words, words,
Intentions re-framing.

And then came the blaming,
Words, words, words,
Boiling and torment attaining.

Toil and sweat to make amends,
Words, words, words,
Then time came to take your friends.

Running, chasing comfort anywhere,
Words, words, words,
Everyone is done, no one seems to care.

Drowning in hellfire of cold,
Words, words, words,
Skin soft but heart gone old.

Not even brought into the fold,
Words, words, words
The old dreamers long long sold.

You promised you were made of gold,
Words, words, words,
They mean nothing anymore. All told.
