 Harry Sweeden. My life in verse.

A place to be


It seems that I've forsaken hope for this lonely place to be
for I have seen to many angels cry
while their masters gently sleep
and I have seen the sky light up with flames
as all below just burned
I have seen a lifeless child's eyes
and the heartbreak felt and learned
I have been through wars to live a dream
though that dream was never mine
I have faced off death and stood my ground
without knowing what I'd find
and now it seems this lonely place is all that's left for me
this world is always loud and raw
and that's not whom I'm meant to be!
