Bewildered and forgotten
No one seems to care
Alone I sit while asking
Is anybody there?
Growing old was not my fault
Nor was it in my plans
I followed the path life gave me
Just like time demands
Discarded like a memory
That's no longer of any use
Rejected and neglected
My age is no excuse
No one comes to visit me
It's like I don't exist
They think I can't remember
So, I am just dismissed
Solitary confinement
What am I being punished for?
You tell me that you love me
Don't I deserve so much more?
No one to tell my troubles to
Or to talk about the past
A prisioner of my loneliness
How much longer can it last?
Banned from all existence
By the wrinkles on my face
One day soon, you'll feel my pain
For you will take my place
