Abandoned

I could see it as you turn away. Still clearly you could hear me say. Don't leave, don't give up on me. This isn't who I'm meant to be. And yet onward you go. A heart made of stone. Ears deaf to my tone. My pleading, my crying. My bleeding, my dying. Life wasn't supposed to be this way. With me broken and you far away. What hope is there for me? I fall down on my knees. Crying for the light. Consumed by the night. The future looks bleak. As you forget about me. The promises you made. Like shadows they fade. White and black become gray. As I struggle to find my way. Don't leave, don't give up on me. This wasn't how it was meant to be.
