I Am a Stray

I am a stray The one who has no place The one who stands alone The one who takes up the extra space How I wish I had my own thrown The person who bounces around The person who has to flee The person who wishes they were home bound Which is someone I don't want to be I want my own family clan I want belonging I want a solid plan Oh, how I've been longing I need a stable place I need to feel wanted I need to not see the tears down my face Which makes me feel haunted What I have is something in the middle What I have is something unique What I have is a crazy riddle Something new every week
