Desperate Shelters

A Place , a face, a way to make the pain go away.
Just for a minute, an hour, a day.
Desperate shelter, an oasis in a sea of despair.
A false sense of security, a light at the end of nothing.

Desperate to share, hoping this time you care.
Wondering what there is to hold on to.
Hoping to gain the strength to make it there.

Shelter from a life, that beats you down.
Breathing, wishing for a moment of peace.
Hoping that the one moment of happiness will never cease.
