Bitter Sweet Home

Today I pray to find a happy place
Only I awake to find myself astray

Alone no hope is where I always stay

Benign my mind which drives me insane 
Envy the world for it seems better off
Today I prAt i find where I belong 
The day will never come
Eternal pain drains my soil
Regret my martyr life

Pray for me to find the strength to lift the world from my back
Love me for what i was not of what you hear
Alone I push to solitude for pain is my only friend
Can you show me how to get the power to light my heart again
Endlessly I remain in search to find my own home, for in my mind i feel blind, forever alone

Prayers are on the way Raven, for you to be given strength. One day at a time. Life is hard and it takes perseverance. Good expressive poem :)
