When you look at me do you see a person? Or do you just see a shape? A toy? A photo book of lifeless memories? Do you know that the loss of you hurts me? When you come back into my life, stay a few days, and are gone back to the life you really live. The life you would be able to stay living with no guilt if I was not alive? Soon not of this will matter though. You'll have a new baby, a new wife, and a new family. One you can love because it isn't broken like me. I am the old toy you throw in a box and take to Goodwill so that I may be given to somebody new... ...only to have the same thing repeated.
