-Obsolete


You took but never gave

You broke but never mended

You lied and betrayed

Your promises were lies intended

 
You played on the kindness of others

Without remorse for your deceit

Years of selfishness and greed

Now….from so  many you are estranged and obsolete!

My heart goes out to this type of person, because they never had someone love them enough to show them tough love. Without a role model they will stay the same forever. Good poetry, Deb. They're many people that fit your description, most have no idea it is about them. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill

Somebody reaped what the sowed and your pen sure told them so, seemingly after they filled it with angry ink aching to write. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

albo.? scumo.?? Its real grimo...Least seems so.? Tho.' I..? Can't say words Are not enough..Stay well; keep my dreaming I can't make it back yet' real Tough.' Don't you know me.? I wonder Much.. I need to lie like the gum leaves In safety below an earth shelf Oh to listen to the sunlight falling count The dustmotes..' hear the jackass calling.' Enough i need to touch the earth.. Kiss the wind all and each my kin.'
