Prolonged Too Long

People who have sought most of their lives,
To obtain popularity with a sudden found interest...
In the times from them that have long gone and moved on,
Are the ones who should feel they have been cheated.
Since they have prolonged too long,
Involving themselves in activities fed to feed escapes...
From their realities that have been erased and replaced.
And they have not a clue how to relate and/or to whom.
