Punching bag

this one is but a punching bag
for others to use and abuse
it’s difficult to do an estimate
of how many people abused it
but it doesn’t matter
this one is but a punching bag
for others to use and abuse
it all started with its father
punching humanity away from it
but it doesn’t matter
this one is but a punching bag
for others to use and abuse
you can feel sorry for it
or show it love sometimes
but it doesn’t matter

because at the end of the day
this one is but a punching bag
not human anymore
not a person anymore
not able to feel anymore

it’s embracing the void
and whatever else happens
happens
