It's a Long Way Home

by Jaquetta Logan
(Clifton NJ )

I searched and looked
Every inch all around
For a love to be set free
Still today, it hasn't been found


My heart bled out
With feint and lies
believing your every word
With every hopeless lie

You made me who I am today
And its not a pretty sight
I feel ugly and hopeless
I cant win this obedient fight

But I found a way to end this
I found a way to cut you loose
At last I can rest
With the man from above, who I choose
