The Shores of Alone

I am the doll upon his shelf
until one day he brings me down
he cuddles me, says loving words
it feels like happiness I've found

I look so pretty in my joy
to once again be close to him
until he tires of what I give
only to toss me on a whim

Now lonely back on dusty shelf
I wonder when he will be back
and why he always goes away
what need of his is what I lack?

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Sandra, this is so very sad, sweet friend, this reminded me of the scene in Toy Story 2 when the little girl used to play with the cowboy girl doll then as she grew up and got into cosmetics rejected her! (sad sigh) I know how love can feel like that, sweet friend, I send angel hugs your way, fear not, there will be one who will always be devoted to your value, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sandra, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Sandra
Maybe you are not lacking anything but it is he who is lacking alot.  Don't be so hard on yourself.  I think you are great.

very sad yet relatable piece.  The one thing i've discovered......when you spend your life trying to please someone......that is precisely how long it is going to take.  The only person you need to please.....is you.  Take care of yourself and never change who you are  FOR ANYBODY....particularly someone who doesn't appreciate you in the first place.
