SOMETIMES I DO CRY

Sometimes I Cry 

Sometimes when I'm alone I'' Cry'' 
For this pain to be gone , 
I ''Cry '' for all of us in our home. 
In the day I act as if everything  
Is going OK and I am strong and  
Can't be no other . 
Dived family of six with no love  
In our home , I had to be ''strong'' 
Even why I was only a little one , 
And now I am on my own. 
I ran from home and my life was already 
Cold of a ''nine year old ,'' 
The tears I ''Cry'' are bitter and warm. 
They flow with life but take no form , 
I ''Cry'' because my heart is torn. 
I find it difficult to carry on another load, 
I had no place to call my own , 
No place to call ''home ''  
If I had an ear to confide in I would be knocking 
At that ones door , 
I would'' cry ''among my treasured friend,  
but who do you know that stops that long,  
to help another carry on ? 
I walked in the dark most of my life why other 
Kept looking down more on my life , 
The world moves fast and it would rather pass me by. 
With no love in mind , 
They never stop and see what makes one ''cry's''   
So painful and sad is they way my life has always been. 
But now I am older my mind and body and soul 
Reawaken to brighter day of the truth that set me free 
Of the darken way of life . 
Even though I will have a lot to learn ,Who to trust and 
Who to love , But for now I just need to keep my heart 
On God that taken hold of a lost soul and made it new .
