Party

alone now, in the company of my self
a knock at the door and lonely walks in
accompanied by his friends, sadness on his arm
dead roses in his hands, wrapped in a tissue of lies
I lay a table for the pity party tonight
dress in shades of gray warring even a mask
pour the wines of self depreciation, iced and chilled
entertain all at the side bar with a tale of scandal
serve up canape's of defamation to your character
we shall eat by candle light, on cushions of despair
a main meal of bitter roots and herbs, finger foods
closing the night with a toast of desistance
returning to both the cloaks of  despair and want
soft kisses of  good bye I will see you no more
Prepare my self for tomorrow's party of
contentment with joy in tow and a house full of love
