Toxic

Walking in circles  
where the shadows  
in the sidewalks smack me in the face  
 
endlessly searching for answers that  
don't reveal themselves  
like why am I but a broken toy  
 
played with too much  
now broken and used  
shelved from over use  
 
i sing my song to deaf ears  
my pain all too paltiable  
lick the plate clean  
 
my blood is being served  
for the strong of stomach  
i'm toxic to those that aren't immune  
 
to sum it all up i'm falling apart  
like a dolly who has been roughed up  
by an over eager little girl  
 
i fear by time this is over  
they will be scraping  
what's left of me from the sidewalk  
 
a broken toy  
for the Gods  
to laugh after
