Wishing For a Home

The day I was born I opened my tiny eye's to finally see the light. Once they were finally open there was only darkness in my sight. Too young to realize that this is not how life was supposed to be. A child destined for sadness can someone please help this little girl see! Her path was already written it's filled with pain and sorrow. Begging for today to be over and already dreading tomorrow. She has spent 25 yrs stuck at this obstacle she cannot seem to breach. She sees the light so she's running for it but it's always just out of reach. She stares at everyone around her the only thing they share is blood. There strangers but look so familiar in her mind overwhelming confusion starts to flood. She always follows her instincts never ignoring her gut. What she's searching for is out there she just can't figure out what. She is lost looking for answers inside her deteriorating soul. Still searching for non existing pieces that will finally make her whole. Is this how it descends is this her never ending fate. Will someone please help this girl it's almost too late! Try putting a puzzle together with 1 piece to make it complete. No matter how hard you try that 1 piece alone will always be obsolete. Never ending strife her life is just like a revolving door. She will go to her grave looking even though she don't know what it is she is searching for. She will continue looking for the impossible answer she may never find. After all how can you find what your after when your eyes are wide open but your still in the dark blind. She is homesick for a place she is not even sure exist here. She will keep trying to alter her fate even though it's unfortunately crystal clear. It's never fame or fortune on a shooting star she wishes for a place to call home. Until then she'll stay in her deep sorrow its all the girl has ever known. She accepts she may never find that place where she belongs. All she wants is to know what "happy" feels like now tell me why that is so wrong?
