How They Feel When You Leave

They\'re gone.

I\'m alone.

Watching, waiting, wondering

and pondering how long

Till they return.

Me crying out

About them:

Hopelessness has overwhelmed me.

Hope?

Huh?

How can that help?

I have no hope.

I don\'t know of hope.

And how hope is helpful

To function

On four feet.

I shall sleep

I still am hopeless

I shall keep

Being the way I am

Hopeless and depressed,

and especially all alone

in this damn cage.
