The One Who Feels Abandoned Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

If I have failed in any way,
To express my lack of support...
In the benefit to cater to your delusions.
I hope one day you will forgive me!
Since my appetite for sweets and whims,
Has been steadily diminished.

And I now seek substance,
Over snacks I've discovered do not nourish.
And I am needing more today than ever,
To maintain a regimen that is disciplined.
With a need to be encouraged.
And I am the one who feels abandoned.
