Grey and Used Lying There
Tired and weary, sad and confused,
Unwanted, unloved, used and abused,
Taken for granted a grey life to live,
Done everything for everyone,
Nothing left to give.
Not needed, not wanted,
What else to say,
A slave to everything
In every way.
None to love and loved by none,
No word of hope. No, not one crumb.
A life so hard, and oh so bare,
Grey and used and lying there.
