Homeless

I was born out of hopelessness. 

To a family, I am not possessed. 

Those loving faces were all a dream. 

I am dragged into loneliness, it seems. 

I guess it’s time for me to be stricken. 

I will not abide by the shocks that sicken!

The pain that should make me forget…

No cavalry is not coming I bet.
