I have known abandoned cars,
abandoned love abandoned pets,
and other places, faces, things
that most people just forget.
There are junkyards and land-filled
with the residues of possessions
stretching for miles across the world
In so many directions.....
I own a huge collection
of abandoned toys
left behind by many girls and boys
when they faced the hood of adult
just the result of growing up
it was not their fault.
but they brought me profit
in what they once cherished
That I saved and I sold
from their fondness that perished.
And I love abandoned places
they hold the spirit of those
who once existed there
and I am wooed into their cobwebbed abode
because they long for the company
of someone human I suppose?
But abandonment can be so cold
I have shared the pain that it exposed
There is a graveyard hidden in my soul
that holds the names of girls I used to know
who long ago told me they loved me so
how I enjoyed their love till they chose to go
and left me never understanding
why they filled my heart with woe
filled my heart with woe.
Two is always the loveliest number
but when one has been subtracted
it leaves all love's joys extracted
and many dreams are left redacted.
and when friend-ship's been abandoned
taking the friend- and leaving
an empty -ship
it is the world's most lonely trip
to an island of one
where all hope comes undone.
As loneliness is reenacted
leaving all souls disenchanted
sadly abandoned and left stranded.
Think twice before you make the choice
of inflicting so much pain
giving voice to all that just destroys
another heart with your disdain
cause far too often loneliness
Has killed those who remain
from suicidal sorrows that grows
toxic in their brain.
Try hard to let them down
in more humane and easy ways
and do not offer friendships
in place of love, it is cliche'
for they must embark on a journey
down abandonments long path
and friendship cannot come close to
the love that they once had.
For all of us have shared that walk
we know each painful step
just kiss them gently or male love
there is no cure or prep
They must adapt to all that crap
abandonment can bring
and only time can heal the wounds
nothing else can ease the sting!
And all that is abandoned
Holds a mirror to your own fate,
where you too will long for human warmth
till abandonment abates
where you're left to wallow in its grief,
till you find another mate
who too has been abandoned
after a long and starving wait
and you both share love's sweet taste
abandonment is such a waste,
Only love can take its place...
only love can take its place!
