I really like this pome I wrote and I would like it to become a song. Here it is:
One night I was sitting on my bed
I was feeling kind of down
Thinking about what people have said
They laugh at me as if I were a clown
On the outside I put on a fake smile
On the inside there are many tears
My emotions are starting to pile
I tell myself not to cry
Because words supposedly won't hurt me
I wanted so bad to die
My heart cries let me be
My heart screams I can't take it
When will it all stop
My heart is having a fit
As its about to pop

There's a voice in my head
It tells me don't give up, Ime
I will never let you down
I am a friend you can always depend on
I think I'm going insane
I turn the radio to the Edge
The radio changes to 91.7
I change it again
It changes back
I think the radio is possessed
So I turn it off
It turns back on
As song comes on called rescue
As I listen I feel something surrounding me
Tears stream down my face
I close my eyes right then
I scream TAKE IT JESUS
I can't do it any more
I can't be independent
I give you my pride
I can't do this alone
I give it all to you
I give you my feelings of loneliness
I give you my feelings of worthlessness
I give you my depression
I give it all to you
IT'S YOURS IT ALL YOURS JESUS
You said your yolk is easy and your burden is light
I believe you
I opened my eyes
Nothing glorious happens
I know I will still be depressed at time
Teenage life still won't be easy
But I know that night I was set free
I was released from Satan's prison
I AM FREE
I AM FREE
THANK YOU, JESUS, I AM FREE

What is your question?

How to find someone to compose the music?

No that's the problem
