Days Like This
No words can begin to describe
How I feel on days like this
Like unwanted mixed with salt
Like pepper on a burn
Hated. Why am I around?
A 'nuisance' to those
Who are mean to care
Like hot curry drowning in tears
An ice bath on a cold day
Locked away writing fears
Bound to come out sometime
Like smelly feet in a clean world
Or a mutt surrounded
In a pedigree show
Uncared for when all I want is love
Pushed away in my 'home'
