In the Corner of My Room©

In the corner of my room

I sit here almost forgotten

Wrapped in my white sheets

Rocking to and fro

Tears streaming

Quickly down my swollen cheeks

Tears attached to memories

Long forgotten here

At least by all the others

But certainly

Not by me

No one else shows their feelings

No one else even cares

Have they been replaced by robots

They seem most insincere

I’m rattled by their ignorance

I’m rattled by my fear

I just know what direction

To take when I leave from here

Will they even let me go

Or will I be a prisoner

Kept here forever

In the corner of my room

There’s no one left to talk to

There’s nothing left to do

I fear I lose my mind

If you leave me here in this room

Won’t you please just save me
