Man’s Best Friend.

Man’s Best Friend.

Am I ashamed in which this life I’ve grown?
It’s hard to say, was there a choice?
This life I am alone.

Mother, father,
Sister, brother,
Their faces fade
Further and further away.
Until they just become another face on the streets,
To pass me by that day.

I see them
All around,
All of them living, without a sound.

Young and old,
Fast and slow,
All looking for a way,
For the right direction to go.
But none know the way,
They have no idea where to go.

For how do you live?
How do you breathe?
When – by the ones you thought would love you most – you are left, deceived.

My title – ‘Man’s Best Friend’
Already seems beyond repair or mend.

Please tell me,
Let me know,
I want to right my wrongs.
In your family,
I just want to belong.

Tell me what I have done to deserve this.
To live a life –
So homeless.

A great piece...a grammar problem in the first stanza, but otherwise it works very well. Post more often, will ya?



the only theft here is of decency when carina decided to rob me of my pride and put me on a banana
