Somewhere...unsure

by Adrian Calhoun

Cold and tired,
wet from the rain,
yet dry within.
Discontent,
misunderstood,
bending in the breeze.

Nowehere to go,
nothing to do.
Wild-eyed, restless,
sometimes rebellious.
Controversy
for the sake of activity.
Screaming into the night,
only to be unheard.

Isolated, feeling all alone,
even amidst the population.
Trying to adjust,
finding the proper placement.
The system doesn't fit.
Falling through the cracks,
without notice.

Never will be a spoke
in this wheel.

wow...such emotion you write into this...comes across so vividly.

Somber, feeling of loneliness and depression; expression of universal feelings at times I think. You definitely project a powerful emotion of dejection.

Hope this isn't self-inspired? Powerful stuff either way. Missing you 'round. :)
