My teddy

My teddy, over there on the floor,

Why are you all alone?

Why do I feel like you're the only one who understands?

You're just material and fluff...

Why is it, when I'm happy,

You don't exist?

But when I'm sad,

You're the only one there...?

You were there when shouts were heard,

When bangs and booms were made,

When cries were echoing through the house...

When silence took over,

When I was to scared to cry anymore...

My teddy, over there, on the floor,

I'm sorry you're all alone...

Its so sweet, we all have a symbol of the teddy, something that really means to us. Teddy Sure have a very deep meaning to us, no matter to children our adults, adults used to say they're doing serious stuff, but I don't think thats what they should do, everyone have a life, a life to spend.

This is so adorable. I remember having a teddy like that as a child (up to teenage years to be honest).. His name was Cocoa and when I was happy, I never gave him a moments thought, but the second I was sad, he was the first thing I reached for. Strange that. Love your usage of language.. excellent read!
