His Story

He picks up the glass again; Piercing shards Remainders of the night Evidence of affliction Tossed away Once Again To be forgotten 'till tomorrow He feels the injustice He is aware of its presence Never taught to run Never taught to speak He stays, basking in his pain In loneliness he cries In neglect, he wipes his own tears; Pats his own back Using a comforting tone, he reassures himself Saying everything's going to be alright His life is agony His time is short He will depart, soon In a pursuit of a better world Never to have a relationship Only a love She'll drive him through boulders Cause his head to throb Burn his wallet; like a lighter and gasoline She'll put him to asleep He'll make her keep him awake She'll take him down that road He'll depart her, and the rest of the world They caused this, She'll be to the blame They can plead 5th She can be scorned Never did they see Never did they look What's to find when not searching? They'll continue their life... Their son won't He has left them... For something they never knew how to provide: Compassion They heard the word Even experienced Never provided. Pure Narcissism. Their greatest possession is now gone They lost sight of their true prerogative They will never know He never knew An endless riddle Look at yourself. Solve.
