Worthless.
A discarded toy.
Played with then thrown away.
It has no feelings.
Used to make others happy while it cries inside.
Broken.
Worn away by venomous words and actions.
Shattered.
It's body breaking under the tension.
Forgotten.
No one caed as it fades into despair.

I can't say that I understand this, but the pain is evident, and I just wanted to leave you a hug.

You might want to check your spelling. Just a suggestion. *hugs*

Welcome to Pip Helen

*sigh* been there, done that. All I can say is that you have to TRY (it's hard, I know) to remember that you're NOT worthless. I've read your other stuff, you've got quite a talent

and then He created the horse...

Welcome to PIP. It feels like this sometimes...but tomorrow is always a new day, right?
