No Place

by jfrank0816

No place for me at my house. Yelling, expectations and failures take what should be mine. I will never be good enough And so I have been pushed to the side. No place for me in your heart. I ripped open my chest for you to see mine beating rhythmically, And you pushed me away. I have had to pack my bags and look elsewhere. No place for me in my mind. Thoughts of who I have become make me want to crumble. I cannot think about myself for too long, Or I will not survive. I have a tiny one-room apartment in hope for the future. No place for me in my church. I have hidden my bisexuality from them, Because it is not exactly smiled upon In the conservative community. No place for me in my town. All these bitches look the same With their money and clothes And the fact that they couldn't care less. And do not get me started on their Republican morals. Will their be a place for me? In the ripples and folds of time? Can I ever find a place where I can stay for a while And be accepted? I guess that's why they build hotels.
