With What Eyes - Heavy Humans

Patiently, the patients wait in
Patent leather gloom
Searchers jaded with success
Their souls seduced by doom
There are many heavy humans in this room
Don't you dare tell them to smile
It's sexier to frown
Tears transcend to diamonds and these
Jewels, they weigh them down
There are many heavy humans in this town
Weighed down by every aspect theirs
Yet still no sense of self
Though not real they lack the lightness of
A fairy or an elf
There are a hundred heavy humans in the book, in the book here on my shelf
Ahh
Ageing from anxiety
They're plucking out their hairs
Seldom shaken, always stirred
By little scattered scares
The are a hundred heavy humans in any prayers
As they fall asleep they erase
The semblance of a start
A time before bleak burdens
When lightness was their art
There are a hundred heavy humans in my heart
In my heart
