It's Sad

It’s sad, you know,

Watching someone you love

Wandering so,

Seeming to go nowhere.

Each day’s no 

Different from the other.

It’s the same old, same old

Day after day after day.

No purpose or direction

Seems to be found.

Just existing,

Putting in their time.

Sleep, awake, eat, play.

What you going to do today?

Same old, same old.

Not much new.

Same old patterns 

Come into play

Day after day

After day.

So empty, it seems,

So focused on self-pleasure.

Not much giving out of oneself

To help another.

Seems to be no 

Motivation to change direction.

Seems content just

Going through a daily routine.

Sad to see, you know.

So sad to see.
