PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I was just a useless toy

to them...



I was good for a laugh,

good for a smile...

if it was for them...



Whenever they saw me struggle

They told me to snap out of it...

because it wasnt fitting...

and it wasnt for them...



They thought it was just another phase

Something I could shake off over night

There words only made it harder

I just wanted to give up the fight



Once they said they believed in me

Only to screw me over

They wanted me to be something great

So in the end I could benefit them



I wanted to fade away

In the darkness of the night

Every night I cried in the chamber

While they wore plastic smiles,

Thinking everything was alright



If someone ever told them,

They would not believe they were to blame

They only loved me if I lived up to their expectations

and mine were wearing thin



However, I am sure

They would never listen

because they story is not all that glamorous

and it is full of pain



It would be just another guilt to add to my name

but afterall I am used to the shame

They only used me for their own game

and everytime I still get the blame



I am just a useless toy

to them..

Thrown on the floor when they are

done using me for their own good



I'm so tired of the harsh reality

Sure I've gone away and they shown that they missed me

Only because I wasnt there for them to torture daily



So their love is hard to believe

They could not even show it until I chose to leave
