William P. Harris Sr. Poet Rhyme

Empty

When you just don't fit anywhere
Guess I really don't care
Always seem to walk this path alone.
It is what I have been shown. 
Tucked out of the way
Have to watch what I say. 
Just don't fit
So alone I sit
Life will always goes on without me
That is just how it be. 
I may be mad
That makes me sad
Say you love me long as I'm not around
I cry but no one hears a sound
Gave up the sea
Hoping there was a place for me
Was there a place I belonged 
Iike I've so longed
Set aside
Must I always have to hide
I must confide
Lonely is this life of solitude 
But people are rude
Words are empty, fake,
All they want to do is take.
The soul runs dry
While silent tears I may cry.
Maybe this is how it is meant to be. 
From all I can see
Life goes on the same
Maybe,  no one is to blame
Walk on head held high
As the rain falls from the sky
Who cares why
Not me. 
Guess this means I'm free.
But all I see,
Is an empty road ahead  
I can only follow it till I'm dead
My words fall on ears that can't hear
While the world drowns in fear
My path , follow it I try
Don't know why
It's always the same. 
A losing game.
I'll never reach my star. 
Maybe it's just to far
