Forgotten

Here I am on the toy shelf
all alone in the dark basement
Forgotton
dreams of the days where I was played with
they seem so far away right now
ever since he left for Montana
Those rainy Thursdays in April
Where I was brought out of the darkness
Just seems like any other day now

Day after day I waited
Waited for the time when I could be useful
Sitting in darkness 
The only light I ever see 
Is the dim lightbulb above me

Finally he came home after endless months
The feelings of happiness that were so far deep down
Started to rise up just a little 
Only to be pushed farther down
He came down the old wooden steps
Happiness rose up again
Until I saw who he was with
Another boy took my spot 

As his playmate
There they sat in all their glittering glory
Far across the room from me
Forgotten 
As I'll ever be
