"Love Wasted"

Her maternal love was wasted.

No-one hears her when she cries

through the night for her lost babies,

and a life so full of lies.


They assume it doesn't matter,

and don't care much anyway.

Her landscape desolate, barren, bleak -

still, she endures each pointless day.


She clung to hope, but was deluded -

and yet, had so much love to give.

One final haemorrhage seals the deal:

bittersweet release - no reason left for her to live.
