Like a Rag

Like a rag
You soak me in the waters of friendship
Then wring me out to hang and dry
You return only to dip me for a minute
Just enough to quench your thirst
Then Like a Rag
I’m thrown to the side waiting to be known
In all these years you have grown
I wonder, is this house I built, my new home?
I built this trap, the back door included
How is it that I too got lost in the sounds of your music
Like a rag only necessary when gloves don’t suit
What’s the point of screaming I’d rather live life mute
Like a rag
There’s nothing I can do to refute
For as long as this sun shines
Nothing’s new en route
