Invisible - Home

Under the stars Beneath the cement I cry in discontent…caught in the web of lament Under the moon Under the water I feel like a delicate infant…I’m hungry for your attention Not your damn resent! I’m lying around…waiting for your bliss To take me Home For I’m too downright distressed To pick myself off my feet…I’m sick and depressed I need a bed to rest on… I need a shoulder to lay my head on… I need covers to keep me warm and safe I need Your love to keep me motivated to move on… I need shelter…before I swelter... I’m torn in shreds… I feel so unsafe…in this shady cave I feel the need for a savior…could He save me… Free me… Take me away from M-my lonesome dorm? Will he lead me somewhere peaceful? Somewhere tranquil? Somewhere plentiful? Somewhere surreal?

You are such an interesting poet. Sorry for the pain that inspired this. There are no easy answers are there? Good luck in this quest. From what I see, you will find a wonderful niche. There is a lot to explore and also many rejections to face before nirvana.
