What You Know

I guess I'm not good enough for you now
so once again I fade into the dark unnoticed
and unwanted
I've grown used to it by now
being of the wim of others like some childs toy
only loved in fits and starts then abandoned till
the next time someone wants to play
and hope that it isn't minced with cruelty or worse.
It's hard to change from what you know
