Abandoned

I find myself forgotten Rotting and rejected Buried underneath a pile of disregard In a place that is neglected You dropped me unknowingly With careless, casual action To you I am so meaninglessness A discarded former attraction Keenly I am so aware My absence from your concern Forsaken in my lonely grave For your attention I yearn I am now just meaningless Filled only with absence of hope A broken shell of what once was A worthless senseless joke But still I’m always waiting In my land of slow decay Longing for just one more touch Before I’m dust to be blown away
