Less Than Nothing
Feeling so unwanted and having to keep myself guarded
Tired of being used, then completely discarded
Left all alone with all of my faith departed
Miserable, unhappy, anguished and broken hearted
Overreaction to everything that comes my way
I am just so tired of being tossed away
As if I am something left on the bottom of a shoe
Why can’t I get what all the others seem to?
Is there a reason I am left here abandoned and alone
Dismissed, disrespected, and forgotten by everyone
What have I done to deserve this kind of pain?
To be so ignored and discarded is worse than being slain
This is torture in the truest form and realest sense
It’s why I am always walking around so tense
And angry at the world for abandoning me
And not letting my voice be heard and for failing to see
That I am like the rest of you, I bleed just the same
Can’t you see the damage you have done? Have you no shame?
I am in agony and drowning in my own grief
Can you please help me or send some type of relief?
I guess this just proves what I have known all my life
I am the victim and the world is the culprit holding the knife
