I'm never worth the time
It seems
To invest in, in any way
Unraveling seams
Silent screams
No matter how I splay
I fail to see
What you see in me
Based on words you choose
Unless of course
I'm your dead horse
Hanging from your noose
Dragged around
On the ground
Through the muck and mire
Gripping blight
Unseen plight
In shadows, I expire
Loveless love
minim shoves
Kept at arms length distance
What must I do
To get you to
Notice my decaying consistence
Actions and words
You infer
Splinters of remiss
What it shows
In my woes
I'm easy to dismiss

I'm never worth the time
It seems
To invest in, in any way
Unraveling seams
Silent screams
No matter how I splay
I fail to see
What you see in me
Based on words you choose
Unless of course
I'm your dead horse
Hanging from your noose
Dragged around
On the ground
Through the muck and mire
Gripping blight
Unseen plight
In shadows, I expire
Loveless love
minim shoves
Kept at arms length distance
What must I do
To get you to
Notice my decaying consistence
Actions and words
You infer
Splinters of remiss
What it shows
In my woes
I'm easy to dismiss
