Is There a Place

When you look into my eyes,
You notice there's no fire no life,
There's no way to my heart,
By way of my emotions and devotion,
On how I feel about you.
I look at you and I am so very tired,
Of fighting of pretending that,
We are ok when we're not.
I know what my heart feels,
I know what my emotions say,
I know I let my feelings lay.
I want the world to be silent and oh so quiet.
I wanna get off at the next stop,
And go somewhere anywhere in this world,
Where I am not judged by the way I love,
Or who I love.
I wonder is there such a place?

Creative work. Sometimes in life you have to do what you do and don't worry about other people or adjust your life to suit those around you so that maybe everyone can be somewhat happy. Sara

Thank you. Yes your absolutely right. You always have to look out for yourself but you seem to get hurt anyway. Hopefully the next time will be better.
