The Abandoned

Staring at the clock,
Hearing it's
Tick-tock.

Wishing for a brighter tomorrow,
Knowing that truly,
My life is all sorrow.

No home to return to,
For I was given the boot.
No shoulder to cry on.
I'm all alone.

I watched the destruction,
I watched the walls
Fall apart.

It was tragic,
Truly a sight to see.
Hidden behind this mask,
Was there ever truly,
Anything?
