The Edge of Loneliness

marginalized again just a widow whose family is grown no longer a central figure overlooked forgotten until something is expected from me then parameters shift I am needed, anticipated counted on for help until that window in time passes then marginalized once more prioritized off the grid of life ~ is it any wonder I gravitate to the one who supports me appreciates me listens with his heart
