left drifting on a tide of morality
thinking vaguely of my mortality
of not belonging
to any one place or time
to any family
left some time ago
in a pit of despair
got hooked into something
that was really not fair
one look at my life
living in a house
that i simply could never call a home
people saying im useless
and delusional
the pain i feel is mostly physical
but as they cannot feel it
they say that im not sick
all i want is someone to love me
and call me once there own
to make me part of there family
and to love me as there own
Author notes
kids, friends, cousins, ex best friend i dnt mind..

You can now include me as part of your family! There has been many a time I felt this way, more times than I like to remember. It is up to you what you want to be in my family... the whole ex best friend thing I dont think will work though, Just because there are no "ex" anything in a family. So think on it and let me know!

i used to wanna be a drifter as a kid, this is a strongly sad poem, a plea for something we sometimes don't feel we can get, keep it flowing and good luck in the contest
