Silent Treatment
3 months ago
Every day, I am ignored and neglected.
But nowadays that is to be expected.
After one thankless errand after another, I come back,
Only to find nobody around, which is whack.
No matter how much I wait, no matter what I say,
Nobody seems to want to play.
Why the silent treatment? Why am I always shunned?
But why complain, knowing the luck I have is none?
Who would want to waste their time with me,
Even if I were struck with so painful a tragedy?
Platitudes and banalities and others I’ve heard
Mean nothing for actions speak louder than words.
But what hurts me the most,
Are the promises and assurances from many a ghost.
Such is luck and such is fate,
And fortune will never come no matter how long I wait.
