I have known the suffering of an inked paper,
Crumpled and thrown away in underappreciated trash bins,
Shoved in the corner between the two cold, unloved walls,
Covered and repainted with an old tattered brush,
Dipped and soaked in that aged drying paint,
Left in the basement with the hot headed furnace,
Tirelessly warning up that cold barren house,
Situated at the end of a long winding road hidden amidst the undergrowth.
Tucked away in this silent suburb a weak barely beating heart,
That lay crippled on a crimson creaking couch,
Standing beside a brown boring table,
Resting on top is a tattered trashed folder,
Inside which a crumpled piece of paper.
