Soul Food

A Poem

Do you ever feel like locking the door?

shutting the world out, you just can't take any more

Do you ever feel like what's my role?

Hurt radiating deep down in your soul

Do you ever feel like its the end of the line?

Screaming inside "Help me, I'm not fine"

Do you ever feel like your being used?

Only here to be abused

We all feel like this sometimes

to express ourselves we write rhymes

Others may pick up a brush and draw

just so their feelings won't feel so raw

Whatever breaks the mood

Do it, its soul food
