    How do I turn a poem into a song?
    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?
