A Little Beyond Poem by Sharron Stephenson

stranded on this little,
world,
without someone to love,
or care,
can make it so much harder,
to cope,
when things go wrong and out,
of control,

may you find that friendly,
voice and tender ear,
to listen and show,
compassion,

friends and strangers,
are the only link to the real world,
which is just beyond, your hand,
and heart,

never give up the fight,
of life and love,

as one day,
you could find both,
as you are stranded,
and lonley
