Dejected
Dejected -Chopped III
Keys of a typewriter no more sound,
Awake till late on work she wasn't around,
Full of cigerrette butts is the ashtray,
Work stress and I have gone astray,
Some butts with lipstick red so bright,
A single earring she might have dropped last night,
An old air ticket signals fury of my spouse,
There's no sign of her presence in the house,
I am left dejected sitting on the ground,
Tender signs of loneliness loudly sound !
