Abandoned

I awoke one morning with nothing I knew. How did this happen, what did I do? Actions taken, different than words spoken. I stood alone, my spirit broken. I stood alone in an empty space: The truth was flowing down my face. The only thought I could conjure was, why? When the answers came, I continued to cry. I thought of a list of your favorite things; People, places, the songs that she sings. I searched for my name, it did not exist. My mind confused became shrouded by mist. I remembered seeing an abandoned pet. Looking around for what food it could get. Moaning and wailing, left all alone, Searching the houses for a loving, new home. I remembered needing some attention from you; But you were too busy to pick up the cue. Time after time, lonely and unwanted I sat. I may feel abandoned, but it’s better than that.
