Folded

Folded
do you know?
		away like a deckchair
care?
	pulled out when required
	for sunny days
	never when dull
	as well be hired
Folded
know how?
		like a made bed
'nuff said?
	turned back at need
	on occasional nights
	when lonely
	to do the deed
Folded
do you hear?
		like a sunday dress
yes?
	for once a week
	to wear to church
	and hide in a pew
	not what I seek

but the creases run deep and the patterns are set and I haven't the nerve to break out as yet and when you see me there on an arm all sauve and laid back politely kept calm then show me a smile let me know of some hope and just touch my hand then maybe I'll cope maybe
