Alone
ALONE
Cold and cramped, it cannot breath
Every one left it
Left this one behind
Alone it cries, alone it sits
We wonder why
It gives a ****
Alone it waits, alone it thinks
It is full of hate
And it does not blink
Alone it sleeps, alone it tries
There it weeps
And tells itself lies
Alone it talks, alone it laughs
And here we mock
While it’s cut in half
Alone it lived, alone it died
Here we feast
On its lost mind
It was all alone, left here in fear
Tortured by its thoughts
Of those who left it
Its family and friends
Left it here with us
To die by our hands, the hands of the unconscious
Where we only live and breath
In the mind
