The day presses from all sides
Yet i'm alive inside
It us where i hide
Where i confide

people are blind
They don't see the kind
Hopeful heart of mine
I just need a vine
To bind me to this time

Lost in the past
Dreams of a bleak destiny
I'm looking for the one
Who can see inside of me

© Katie C., Libertyville, IA

This poem is about being insecure and misunderstood and looking for someone who accepts you for who you are
