in depth look at poem: this poem was written for a person (unsure of handle) who talked to me in chat when I was really depressed. I was really thankful for all their help. (I don't remember if I said anything to them about writing a poem)


I came in

I came in despair
hopeless and bleeding
but you took me in,
cleaned my wounds,
fed my hunger,
and gave me my life back.

I came in emptiness
lonely and dying
but you took me in,
healed my heart,
fed my starvation,
and gave me my peace again.

Dedicated to:
   that one person who talked to me in chat when I was feeling bad.
