Notice of absence from Jooles
I disappear for months on end......just my life but I always come back!
I disappear for months on end......just my life but I always come back!
How should I feel
When I would start a war for you but you won't even make a ripple in a puddle for me
How should I feel
When Nations would fall for slating your name but no stone in the sea you would throw for me
How should I feel
When you deserve to be fought for, but no fight for me there seems to be
How should I feel
When I give you all, but it's not given back to me
How should I feel
When the sadness it takes me and I can't bare your name
How should I feel
When suddenly I realise you don't feel the same

Unfortunately life is like that but I am sure that perseverance will prevail.
Hi Goldfinch60, I'm sure it will. Thanks
I love the repeated question in your piece. For right there and then its a huge question. A feeling of being abused, undervalued, dishonoured, taken for granted, used.... all of these and more but no single word suffices.
Absolutely, you put it so well
Thanks for the comments everyone, much appreciated x
