Happiness Denied
Prune the trees, tend the weeds
Plow the soil, water the plants
Feed the cows, herd the goats
Mop the floor, dust the ledge
Wash the clothes, vacumn the carpet
Tidy your room, cook your food
Give you surprises, buy you gifts
Take you home, listen to'r problems
Hug you more, piss you less
Treat you nice, treat you fine
Bring you out, bring you joy
Make you happy, make you free
Where does that leave me,
Why am I so lonely then.
Where's the light of love that I need
A pale darkness of gloom
Perpetuates within.
So empty am I!
Will anyone hear me?
Save me please
From this chasm of gloom
Oh how I hate it
All I do, all I do for you,
Art thou satisfied?
Why doesn't it show
That you APPRECIATE
and that you ACKNOWLEDGE my effort
Yet you don't, all in your own world
What about me?
Lonely
Happiness denied.
