Forgotten love

So I watched Toy Story a while ago and got the inspiration for this. :)

I smile sweetly

As I see you approaching.

It has been years 

Since you last laid your eyes on me.

Will I receive a hug this time?

Even just a simple hello will do. 

But you ignored me.

Not even bothering to acknowledge

My presence.

It was just a fleeting glance.

Not enough to get your attention.

Don't you even remember me?

Just for a tiny bit?

I remember how you used to love me

Is that all forgotten?

I guess we really have

Grown apart.

So I sunk deeper into this corner

 of the shelf in your room.

Hoping that maybe next time

You'll finally see me,

Finally remember me,

Finally hug me.

Until then

I'll just be a forgotten toy

Waiting to be loved again.

Awww! I remember how sad I was when I donated my old toys and stuffed animals but as sad as it was, I knew someone else would use way more than me

I still have all of mine. But they're all stacked in a box and now I feel bad. Thanks for the review. :)

My pleasure but hey, hoarding toys is not productive ;) I'm just nodding I still have some of mine

[Carissa Marie]

hahaha. But I love each one of them dearly. And in perfectly good condition. =))

Oh my, I haven't touch them in forever but they always bring back great memories :)

I know. Plus its sort of my collection. But I guess I have to depart with them sooner or later. sigh
