No Where To Turn

These days, people are so damn decieving,
Got me asking myself, who is there to believe in?
I would change my ways if someone would give me a good reason,
Life has too many rules so I'd rather stick to cheating,
The same people back in the day that were there for me,
Are the same ones, who today, don't care for me,
And as I get older, my heart gets colder,
Need my head to rest on someone's shoulder,
Walking through life, still not knowing what I'm looking for,
When it's all said and done, I hope my soul is knocking on Heaven's door,
In this point of my life I hate it,
Because no matter how much I do, I just can't seem to be appreciated,
For the past few nights I've shed so many tears,
Shouting out in my prayers to the Lord that I'm not happy here,
They say the cure is to come home, because family is where the home is,
If that's the case.....then I guess I'm homeless,
Success is always a battle,
So while people are fighting for the spotlight, I'm lurking in the shadows.

I can relate....but what got me through was to read and pray everyday, join a church where the word of God is being preached. Your writing style is beautiful and its an excellent outlet. Stay strong in Jesus soon you will overcome. God bless.
