Gone Away Poem by James Casey

Gone Away

I've tried and tired and I've tried again
But I'm always on the losing end.
Come take me away, to where things are ok
Because I wanna be where I'm happy

All you people don't understand
What I'm going through hand in hand
You all had the chance to help me through
But one after one, you all withdrew

But, your chance is gone so now I walk alone
In search of a friend to guide me, this day
Maybe a priest, a nun, a neighbor but hey
Please take me away to where things are ok

Can I live by any ones rules? , I think that is true
I've lived under this tyrant, no room to argue
I am really tired of being someones lacky
I just wanna somewhere where I'll be happy.
