And you ended it just perfectly.

I thought I found you,
a dock to unload my soulboat
^^ These lines are what I'm thinking were enough of a hook. They really caught my attention. And I love the use of soulboat and the metaphor that holds.
Somewhere to unload
the precious load I carry
^^ So simple yet so important for the rest of the piece.
This load is my message
the message of my soul
^^ My favorite line it "the message of my soul" and hopefully whoever really gets it deserves it :)
I must tell you
that it's only meant for you
^^ I love how it is directed to one person yet any can read it directed to them and gain a different perspective.
My soulmessage is
my sole message to you
^^ The repetition of the soulmessage is used well. It really sticks to the directness and theme of the piece.
But you denied me access
claimed that I had the wrong papers
^^ Now the wonderful piece takes a sad tole. Why? Well, I guess that's life and this was and excellent way to turn the focused emotion of such a piece.
So my soulmessage is still stuck
between my heart and soul
^^ At least it is still safe. Loved these lines, they kinda made me stop and think a bit.
And during a cold starry night
you threw your own Tea Party
^^ Wonderful ending, still on the sad tole and again wonderfully used.
All in all, I love your word choice and the flow. I love the simplicity yet pure emotional expression. Fantastic job. Magnificent piece.
