I wrote this poem for all the orphans in search of a place they belong.
My soul softly whispers of a place unknown.A place my eyes have never been shown.
A constant yearn for things not seen. Not everything is as it seems.
My heart screams its greatest desires,
but I learn to ignore them as life requires.
A place where I can safely sleep.
A place for things I can keep.
A gentle touch, a kiss goodnight
someone to care and hold me tight.
A simple I love you or I’ll be there
Sometimes the loneliness is to much to bare.
Everyday a struggle just to survive,
But to me it is just a way of life.
I’ve asked so many, help me please. Some have sad eyes and reasons to leave. Most all turn away not wanting to see.
