How many more tears do I have to cry, how many more years til I understand why? How many more of those long sleepless nights? How much longer till I know im gonna be alright? Wanting to belong is all that I need, just wanting to be loved isnt acting in greed. How many more sad poems will I write as I read, its hard knowing it all come about from one little seed. I see so many lives surrounding me with cheer, then I see myself all balled up in fear. To bad life doesn't have a wheel I can steer, I guess I will just sit back down for now im just here. Will I ever let go of this pain from my past? or does this nightmare I live plan to always last. Its all coming at me to hard and to fast, feeling like im smothered in a full body cast. Trying to understand where it is I belong, trying to stay alert,but at the same time stay strong. No matter what i've done its always been wrong, at least thats what i have heard for so long. I turn my head as I sit and pray, hoping tomorrow brings a peaceful day. Solitary and alone is how I must stay, but still the pain and torture wont go away... Saturday, May 24, 2008
