Teddy Bear

I am just a teddy bear

My person loves me

She takes me to tea parties

She tucks me into bed

And bids me the sweetest of dreams

.

Sometimes she drops me

But it's okay she didn't mean to

She also steps on me

But I always bounce back

I'm a tough guy it's fine

.

But now I'm older and so is she

My fur is no longer soft

I lost an eye in the loft

My seams are getting loose

The tea parties have ceased

.

Now she looks at me

My very bestest of friends

She swoops me up in her embrace

I get to come along?

Oh my it's been so long!

.

Without a word she discards me

I watch her face get further

The lid shuts ever so softly

I kept her safe in the dark

Now she abandons me in it

.

No Goodwill donation for me

Who would want a sad Teddy?

Not us, her family seems to agree

I watch their disgusted faces

As they add trash to the heap

.

If there is such a thing as mercy

Please bring garbage day

Let that horrendous metal

Make these shattered insides

Match my ugly outsides
