Shelter

You try to escape the pouring rain,
You try to escape the death-cold snow,
You try to hide from the searing pain,
But I can see the human below.

You deny you’re of worth,
You deny you’re still free.
You deny you belong to this earth,
But I know you’re just like me.

Find yourself a new home,
Find yourself a haven.
You’ve got no time to roam
On black wings like a raven.

Shelter yourself from the hate,
Shelter yourself from the ice.
I can tell it’s not too late.
A simple home will suffice.

You still have a soul,
You still have a mind.
Your debt’s paid in full,
I won’t leave you behind.

Welcome

So, this is where it starts. Hopefully, these poems will come at regular intervals. Hopefully, this becomes something worth speaking of. Comment on the poems I make, and hopefully the quality and skill will improve before your eyes. Thanks for reading the very first post.
