5/8/2025 for Abandon Poetry Contest sponsored by Constance La France

How does it feel to be unwanted, forgotten and abandoned? Spectral memories leave me haunted with no ground to stand on.   Ever wishing only to belong, drifting through my life alone to the sad tune of a heartbreak song like a leaf the wind has blown. Skin and bones and growing old, enduring more, unable, floating from the street of cold, I join the welcome table.
