I am filled with sadness and -
I seek shelter.
I am filled with pain and -
I still seek shelter.

I am on bended knee,
arms outstretched,
fists clenched.
The tears pour from my eyes
and seep from my heart.
My face heavenward -
I cry for shelter

For some odd reason this caused me to think of a question a Greek orthodox bishop once asked me. "If I am talking to myself, who is talking and who is listening? Because I cant do both at the same time!" anyway I know how you feel.
