WITHOUT YOU!

I am like spittle being flung around,
A pile of dog dung on the ground.
Rising as bacteria carried by a breeze.
Turning into fungus hanging low on trees.
I am a maggot squirming like a worm.
Feeding on a carcass overrun with germs.
I am the slime in the wake of the snail.
Or the hopeless inmate inside any jail.
I am a knat that could choke a mule.
I am the world’s most miserable fool.
Every reward for the life I’ve wrought,
Will all be like threads in my noose’s knot.
I always sought in life to do what’s right.
By walking mostly near a path of light.
Many were the pleasures for which I yearned,
Trapped as unfulfilled desires that hotly burned.
I lived in a vacuum, or so it seemed.
The love that I let out, did not return to me.
Everyone else would see me as spittle too.
If ever I lived a day dear without you!
