Hold On

They told me, "Hold on,
For another day, no more"
But how do I hold on when I'm not wanted anymore?

I tried to confide in someone
They through me away
I tried to start a hobby
But nothing made my day

I am like a hollow tree
Sometimes full, always empty
I might give others joy,
By becoming a home or a toy

But one day I'll fall
As a hollow tree does
And I won't hear them say, "Hold on"
As im turn into ash and dust
