Poem

I speak in lyrics
I speak in parables
My mind is oft at war with itself
My heart denies the good within me

I lose my way
I find myself
My peers reject
My faults exploited

Comfort is rare
Support comes late
My life is tumbling
No net can save

I cry for principle
I beg for questions
I fail
I fail again

I seek truth
I hurt feelings
If truth matters not
What defines our life?

Alone was I born
Alone I wander
Alone I grieve
Alone I live

Nothing to say
Nothing to give
Alone I grieve
Alone I live
