Homeless
So this is how it's to be for an unknown length of time,
I can't be myself around others and speak my mind,
It's ended my marriage and cost me my friends,
I suppose this is how it will be till my life ends.
With no place to go, with no place to call home,
I will live within four walls to dwell alone.
Weather it's in a cardboard box or in a room shared with others,
I'm still alone, friendless and my heart will smother.
If I'm on the other side of the world I have no one to come back to here,
homeless I wander, I cannot share my life with those I hold dear.
I feel like I'm the living dead,
my family taken from me, my sanity hanging by a thread.
It seems like I can't do anything right,
no purpose to live, no will to fight.
