Inside myself is a place where I live all alone

Inspired by Pearl Buck

Inside myself is a place where I live all alone

A place where my life people cannot condone

My mist of thoughts leave a trace in your eyes

Your look is diverted you cannot face your lies

If you looked in through the doors of my head

Then I'm a person alive and not very much dead

If you find my rope then hold on to it tight

I will reward you and share with you my insight

I wait to see your genuine love and concern

To light my eyes and for my spirit to adorn

I pray that my difference will not keep me alone

And that I'll carry on with my thoughts on my own.
