Have you ever been stolen
Has anything you have been ripped away
Have you ever felt lonely
Have you ever felt trapped
Well it's taking its toll
On all of us
All I meant was to entertain
All I meant was to have something to say
All I heard was that your lonely
That you've been trapped
Laid down raped of your soul
It happens to the best of us
Have you ever drank yourself to sleep
Has anyone ever told your not worth the time
Have you ever been shot down because of your thoughts
Have you ever been where you are
Well lets take control
Controlling our destiny
I have this simple dream
But was it all a lie
I'm tired of the criticism for my thoughts
And I know that
Will I know that you've all felt this way before
So lets sing a song
Write in prose
Tell a story
Paint this picture
Tell them something in ink
Or express your thoughts on me
I'm listening
If you ever been stolen
If you ever been ripped apart
Feel like you had nothing
Just remember that I'm here
And I'll whisper to you my remorse
And this is from my heart

This was amazing. You are a great writer bro

very easy to relate to. the best thing you can do is make your works easy to relate to. writing is about your feelings but its also about what the reader can relate to. you have an amazing way with words ^.^ i dont think theres anyone on the planet who hasnt asked at least one of these questions to themselves.
i would love to collaborate with you on a writing, i write mostly lyrics but from reading your profile it doesnt seem like that would be a problem. I feel songs have more power than a poem, music is the key to the heart and the words are the soothing of our souls. Perhaps even one day we could put music to something ^.^

A hand you have most certainly extended in this piece. You have asked questions all of us have at some point found ourselves asking. Our salvation comes from those who open their hearts and lend comfort however needed. You have displayed this well. Best of luck to you in the contest.
