The Obvious Denied
His first reaction on finding himself irreparable severed
from the others is to bask in the comfort of the isolation that he had been
searching for
DonÕt pretend you care again
and stop demanding where IÕve been
itÕs a long time too far alone
Your girdleÕs growing tight my friend
and I wonÕt deign to not defend
Your weatherÕs growing bolder yet
ItÕs a long time too far alone
If marriage makes the most of us
a greener green than weÕve become
will deign to swallow up our hearts
The obvious all but denied
I will wait Ōtill you arrive
ItÕs a long time too far alone
