I’ve never been homeless. I’ve never been an orphan. However I am emotionally homeless, as I have yet to find a place that completely feels like home. Although I am still grateful for how close I’ve come to feeling home. I am emotionally an orphan, as those that I thought were my parents… Never really loved me. Although I am still grateful for the family I have made.
I am emotionally homeless. I am emotionally an orphan. And it still hurts. While I will not compare it to actually being as I have never been, that does not make the pain I feel from both any less.

That described most of my emotional life. I was never able to put it so many words. Thanks for writing this.
I am well off and come from a not so bad family but yeah I don’t feel at home here at all. I still feel locked into a prison and can’t get out. Im like a rat in a cage that sits in the corner but someone opened the door to the cage a few days ago. Maybe the cat is waiting for me outside my cage but I don’t know. I am going to Reno tomorrow so at least Im getting out of here for a while. I wonder if a cougar will get me. I kinda hope so lol.
