Fifth

Let me get that for you mam. Excuse me miss would you like some help with that? Hello, how are you doing today?

The well rounded chivalrous, ideal gentleman that approaches with no negative indignation now says no.

His duty of respect was once vehement and wholehearted but the carnage remains to acknowledge him before a thank you would.

He's that charitable offspring that your grandmother admonishes and brags about.

His innocence and reason for nobility is not to find self satisfaction in hearing someone's voice. But find the disclaimers that society relays when placed in thoughtful environments.

The smile that he has upheld for so long is a brute stare that peers into the eyes and prays for forgiveness. He cannot return to the falsified image that what was.
