plastic bag

A plastic bag drifting through  the wind
Under the circumstances then nobody cares
 an empty plastic bag drifting  through the quiet cold breeze
 wondering where you will take me
 the places we will go
 a plastic bag drifting through the snow
 shivering cold
 it's a piece of trash
 nobody cares about a dumb plastic bag
 cold as can be flying through the wind
 tears shut down my face
 freezing to my skin
 I want to be normal again
 the thoughts Rest In My Head
 wishing to start over
 and where I began
 moving through many different things
 different places
 different breezes
 I just want to be free
 a plastic bag lifting through the wind
 nobody cares under the circumstances that you stand in
 a piece of plastic
 a swiveled up thing
 drifting to the quiet  cold breeze
But nobody knows
 the secrets that that little plastic bag holds
 it's been through Heaven and Hell
 it's been rained on… cried on
 it's been smashed to the ground
 it's been so long since a little bag that little plastic bag has felt at home
 drifting through the wind 
wanting to start life again
 listen to people talk
 not understanding a simple thing
 nobody wants to pick me up
 I feel that plastic bag drifting through the wind
 that plastic bag feels me
 because I just want to be set free
 let loose
 I want to drift in the Wind
 if anyone cares 
 but that little plastic bag
 it has feelings that no one will ever see that poor plastic bag.
The plastic bag has disappeared.

a very intriguing bit of personification here Piper. I shall whisper hello to any lonely plastic bags that float by me. Nicely done.
