Day passes by skillfully
Night brings drunkard misery
Corner seats are taken by the twins
I’m left wide open to the screen
Church bells have spoken
King of the jungle has entered for his next meal
I utter no word for you’ve already found mistakes
A toast to life you stamp on my face as your best friend Johnny comes in
…dinner is done, now its time for the dessert –
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hit you” & you take me to your bed!

Hmmm... A very intriguing piece, filled with such a distaste. Sad, and unfortunately that sigh of neglect shines through. Warning not heeded, heart always bleeding. Nice take on the prompt. Thank you for your entry!

i have never found a reason for abuse, it takes a very sad person to do it, keep it flowing and good luck in the contest
