No Longer Poem by Billy Thompson

You look at me with killer eyes
As I offer you my last bread
This very gift makes you despise
Yet you accept it with dread

In your past others fed on you
So decidedly you trust me not
I reached and your hand you withdrew
Caused by the suffering never forgot

I've been where you are so I understand
That's why I wont quit
Reach out and hold my hand
I'll teach you how to remit

Lean on me for strength if you will
Together we'll make it through
I will be here for you until....
Remember this moment as new
