A place to lie, a place to weep,
A place to think, a place to keep,
A place to feel, a place to breathe,
A place to sing, a place to bleed.
In these places, we live within,
No comfort for good, no wages for sin.
It's just a place for you alone
To hide away and never be known,
Where no one can listen and yet be heard
Without having to whisper a single word,
Be understood and not have to explain,
No reason to admit defeat nor blame.
It's a place we all need to find
Buried deep below the flesh and blood inside.
Without a place, we should not live,
For we will not have emotions to feel nor give.
It is here in this place you feel truly alive
Where every part of your being will surely thrive.

Mooooooooo where are you??? This is such a wonderful narrative, rhyming/ yet not, descriptive and chocked with emotion piece on a place I am sure all of us are looking for! I really this, and I wish I knew where such a place was. Yes I do!

Hi!!! I've missed you!!! runs up to you and hugs you, almost choking you oh...oops. 
Without a place, we should not live,
For we will not have emotions to feel nor give.
Everyone needs their only little heart place, as my grade 5 teacher always told me. We need a place where we feel comfortable to be ourselves.
I hope you find your place soon, m'dear. Excellent poem. I've missed you so much.
With love,
Kate....Cecilia?
