Words to help you smile

No one seems to get what I'm saying.

Everyone thinks it's some game that I'm playing.

Some people like to deride me and mock.

But my words are written and meant to unlock

Something deep inside the lonely heart.

It's the colors of my soul, my hidden art.

So fellow traveler, please rest your weary load.

You can unravel here, find rest or implode.

Reach out with me into the lonely darkness.

I'm so familiar with the empty spaces, the lonely and heartless.

Here's your invitation to find comfort here.

We could take a vacation, from doubt and from fear.

So if these words have touched your soul, I hope they have helped you feel a bit more whole.
