Her mother
didn’t listen, “I´m busy dear, go out & play,”
So dragging
her teddy behind her, she went out & away,
Daddy worked
too hard, “One day we´ll have some fun,”
So outside
she went sad & searched for her friend the sun,
Her
grandparents had long gone, to heaven up high & above,
Praying to God,
“Please hug them & tell them I send my love.”
Love was
cruel, husband had left; he said she was far too dull,
Leaving her
feeling as empty as a boat with a broken old hull,
Her daughter
laughed, all her way to an exotic & faraway land,
So she buried
her head low, down in pillows & very deep sand,
Her son found
the woman of his dreams, turned & said “bye”,
She felt life
had passed her by & asked of it, “Please tell me why?”
She dragged
her loneliness with her, like teddy, through empty life,
With every
slow plodding step, from babe to mother & caring wife,
Nobody was
ever listening, or even caring to what she had to say,
So she made
friends with the silent night & the pretty golden day,
And she knew
that on this old earth, she was her best & only friend,
She thanked God
above, that on herself she could always depend.
