Abandonment Poem by Adrian Shorey

Some people say 'Things will get better! ',
As far as I'm concerned my eyes will just get wetter,
The tears that fall are often mis-shed,
At least that's what I think when I lie my head...
Others say 'Life's good, don't be a bust',
But when you're betrayed so often that it's hard to trust...
There's not often something to help the lust...
That I have to be important in this world when I'm less than dust...
No matter what people say trying to convince me,
In my own life that I'm 'The Key',
I respond with 'Then I'm the key without a lock,
Because no matter what I'm behind the 'flock' '...
Every time I find someone important, to an extent,
I know I'm always gunna' end up with abandonment...
