emotions are overflowing
enough to fill an ocean
at this point in life
not knowing where to turn or which bridge to burn
searching for that infamous door
that lead to the very core
core of who I am
a most complete man
tried to be like everyone else
but too crowded
strange is love and applauded
pencil to paper, paper to pencil
I paint this picture with no stencil
life is harder now than before
desire comfort and peace as I explore
thoughts through this pen bleed
praying one day it pay
children are in need
holding on but at the end of my rope
established vices to help me cope
telling them as if they didn't know
more private now, no longer the show
changed and Life is to blame
altered and not the same
don't know where to go or what to do
God says, 'Be still, I got you.'
