I seek shelter in the night as I
wrap the darkness around me
like a black velvet cloak around
my shoulders.
I've been an outcast all my life
lost in this world
trying in desperation to find a place
where I fit in
haven't I paid my dues ?
how much more do I need to pay ?
my heart ?
my soul ?
both ?
with bended head I've prayed
on bended knees I've cried
I ask
Is each tear I shed
for your lost soul or mine ?
...........no answer ................
I wrap the darkness around me
once more as I seek shelter in
the night

Worthiness and self promotion, to toot one's own horn, to be a grasper taking little, but seeking everywhere answers can be life consuming. I am glad to know you via your verse - Just Bein' Stella
