LEFT IN A CHAIR
A husband now gone, a lifetime spent together,
She has a life, not young anymore but a human being.
Everything has changed for this nice lady of an older age,
Taken from her home where comfort was her daily friend.
Cast aside in such ways, disregarded as a person due to aging,
Sad as the family she raised now takes away her Independence.
From once a baby now treated once again as a child, I watch this,
They wait for her to go, out of greed they seem not to care,
She sits by a back door, it seems her life is left in a chair.
