Hanging On





 

Tired of just hanging on

With nothing to do

And no way to do it

If I had something.

 

Nobody calls much, and

No one comes around to

See if ya still alive, or

Act as if they even care.

 

So here I sit, wasting my

time on here trying to Write

A new Poem that no one will

Even read...LOL

 

But Writing Poetry is

All I can really do now

All my strength is gone

And my Health to.

 

My Family is so far apart

That it's hard to see them

And some really just don't

Care anymore at all.

 

So I keep hanging on

Praying for a better way

And for my Family to

See the Light one day.
