Kindred

there is not a space for me to breathe
nothing to hope for, a tomorrow to believe
the one's I meet are looking to deceive
or lay me down before they leave
a kindred spirit is what I need
a soul mate who is more like me
with love and truth who won't mislead
so I can remove this heart from my sleeve
for now it just continues to bleed
