Find a better
place to stand
than among
a den of thieves
Do not let fate
dictate your plan
as you just drift
away at ease

Many will try
to cajole you
to follow hundreds
into the stream
and they in turn
will try to hold you
until you find
you're in a deep, dark sea

Far from a place
called home
whatever that
once was
you may feel
you have to roam
and only just
because

Because you feel
ashamed,
afraid and quite
on your own
but there is a place
and ever was
past the regret
you've known

Let down
the burden you hold
and find the truth
hiding inside
Come in
out of the cold
Now is the time
to give up pride
