Homeless

life

Sometimes I feel alone 
As if I’m out here on my own
Abandoned. No guidance
or old companions
It all feels wrong
No connected-ness for which I long 
No place that feels familiar,
that feels like home 
Even home don’t feel the same
Been gone too long; 
everything’s changed
I’m from a different time
that only lives inside the minds
of kids from my generation
before being overtaken
by life I had to eat 
in a concrete jungle.
New York streets
had no mercy
Rents absurdly high
even for efficiencies
Had to slide
Detoured to B’more with my B.K. Kats,
but they up in the traps
Couldn’t *** with that
Had to stay legal
Owed it to my people
Pops sacrificed to much
‘fore his life was snuffed out by that cancer
It took Moms, too
Burned their coffins
Made me and Sis orphans fighting over debt
Wished it was a check
We cool now, but I digress
Always out of place
It’s written on my face
They see it in my style
So many outta state Kats in Harm City
sharing the same fate
Always an outsider
I blame my New York state of mind 
My closest friends all hail from outside Maryland
North Cackalacky, ATL and a chubby African
Though I visit, it just feels wrong
I can’t go home ‘cause I don’t belong
I don’t fit in anywhere anymore 
I guess I’m homeless.

Great depth and a great piece of writing, reminds me a lot when I was in the service go home on leave not the same cant get a groove cause you know soon you got to go, understand that line about wish it was a check instead of debt, world need more folks with the pride you have in yourself and respect for your family
