Nothing.
November 12, 2009
Where do you go when you can't go home?
When home is simply a house, a building?
A place filled with people who hate you?
Who do nothing but judge you?
When they don't understand you or even barly know you?
other than that somehow your related, although your nothing alike?
So where do you go, when there's no where to run away to?
No arms to run into?
No where to find love?
Where do you go when the only place you have is misery?
When your home is burning down around you?
While your "family" is adding to the fire your stuck in?
Nothing, No reason to run for.
Nothing to be loved by.
Nothing to run to.
Nothing.

Hey, maybe you can check out my work too? I have a poem titled Escape that's based on a similar theme. Maybe you'll like it (:

Wow, you described the feeling of loneliness and not belonging very well! It's deep, emotional, and sad. I really liked how you ended it with that single word because it made it really strong and symbolizes the finality of it and the emptiness of the feeling. Great poem!!
