Absence

Who are you?
With no presence,
You still want influence.
A snakeskin shed.
Long gone and nowhere to be found;
You abandoned your own flesh and blood.
Some men are vicious,
You were just gone.
Playing victim
Like you're not the reason they're drowning.
Struggling to tread water,
Once wishing you were there,
Struggling to tread water,
They've learned you won't reach out.
You've got it rough. You snake. You coward.
You are dead inside and you blame the ones that you killed.
You're dead inside.
You left them all but you cry for help.
You expect someone to be there for you
When your whole life is lived for yourself.
You're reaching out your hand,
You're on your own,
Desperate for help.
But just like when they needed you,
You're on your own.
This is who you are.
You're on your own.
