Not valued

I am an ignored piece of furniture
like that of a ghost with no home,
the value that was placed upon me
is null, my pain from being a broken
piece a piece none put any
value upon any more.

Thrown away at birth
by a mother who couldn't bother,
a father who was a thief,
shoved off on those who
raised their own, no more
wanted then a dog pile.

Raped, beaten, again thrown away,
this time more broken then before,
lonesome, alone, different,
never fitting, a thing without
value.

Found him in a place I never
thought I would, love bloomed
fully, given completely and thinking
it was returned.

Pain flairs full bloom, death is
close to mind, throw away yet
again a piece with no value,
a ghost with no home.
