He's wasting away, his skin clings to his bones
He no longer talks doesn't answer his phone
His eyes are lifeless, there is no soul
His mouth is a shrivelled, sunken hole
His body is unwashed, his hair is matted
He's finally given in to this never ending battle
Helpers come to visit but he's lost to the poison
He doesn't want to go on, he can't see a reason
The pills form a pile at his front door
There's faeces and ***** soaked into the floor
His chair is an island, the ******* the sea
The ***** is his medicine, the cigarettes his relief
He sits in his pants, he has no dignity left
He feels so utterly useless, completely  bereft
His children just use him, abuse him for money
He just wants them to love him unconditionally
