You talk to me all the time

Sometimes good but mostly sad

Whenever you need reassurance you look at me right in the face

Listening to me tell you “you are worthless”

Or “today will be better”


I have seen it all

Tears and joy

I have seen you alone and with others

I thought I was more important to you

I was wrong


One day she made you angry

Real angry

The next thing I knew I was all over the floor

My hand cut up pretty bad

“Not again!” I hear

And I was easily replaced

But seven years of bad luck followed with you
