Channel Orange

Escaping lonely corridors 
Was like telling empty to fill up
On the budget of heartless love
Stained in the hallways of forgotten
She was the only remedy unlikely present
Hazed before sun flares and glares 
Shadows cooled the air 
Warmly chilling the atmosphere 
She was the pink matter and Sierra Leone 
Pressure diamonds plucked right from the earths core
Admittedly the contraction of limbs pain
The arthritis to the persevering 
Ahead of the mining she chose
Palaces of seclusion
Every moment stayed past its invitation
Protection vacant in exposure
Prevailing before her solemn nature
No one heard the wolf croon
Every moon zombied her expectations 
Risen into the dark and facetious ahead of promise
The night lit entrances 
Crowded by partitioned doorways 
Eyes shut to dream the revelation 
No parables descriptive for her condition 
Cold lukewarm soldier of passion 
Love thrusting it’s lust with no justice
Pyramids formed their place in history 
“Without “ became the condition 
Over the counter held no position 
Underwhelming it all became 
She was elusive amongst the crowds of modernity 
Blending without the appropriate tutorial
She was the gift 
Unable to be acquainted with the right reader
She crept heavily to avoid the hyenas 
Scrounging for prey she became the hunter
Tucked into her story along the high rise
To promiscuous personalities 
Left on the road of battered feet 
She was the overlooked to the oblivious
Rotten into their settlement 
Easily pitying the peasants unknowing of truth
Hotel signs flickered
Temporary visitors headed to check out
Access cards revoked promptly 
She landed in the clouds every time
For she wasn’t good enough for self
Tasting doubt every lick to her lips
Commanility drained her vibe from her hips
She sipped the cognac of the dating scene
Tipsy off the missing substance of quality.
