ABANDONED
If you came closer
I would kiss you
Intensely
My body trembles
I am scared
I cower, I cry
They will kill me
My heart is broken
You walk close
Your hand trailing my bars
I can almost feel your warmth
I slide closer
Maybe...this time...
But you don't turn
I lay down in filth
You did not see my tender soul
My eyes close, drifting away
To the Rainbow Bridge
