Just a toy




1.


we treat each other like toys

not just

me

and

you


our friends

family

partners


we're with them


and

we use them


and when we're done

we thrown them away


out of boredom

or wanting

to play with another toy


until we play with them again



but sometimes


we

never

want to play with the same toys

again


or those toys

disappear

into thin air



2.


I felt like a toy of yours


just another

one

out of your many


for a very long time


whereas I wanted you

all the time


but you were off

playing

with your other toys


and I had to live

wondering

if you'd ever come back

each time you'd leave


and maybe

that's why

I was cruel to you


out of insecurity

and fear



but who's to say you were wrong

to treat me that way?


we're all children at heart


and knowing you tried


I suppose


is enough.
