I found this poem that I wrote this summer.
Lost
You know it's bad when you can't find your way in your own head
People who know where they are all the time make me feel like I'm dead
Feeling so lost and all alone doesn't seem right for me,
but when I try to find the way it seems I just can't see
I'm like the lightning in a storm not knowing where to go,
Always wanting to be the thunder, the part that never shows
Maybe I don't really want to be found, in this world of mine
Being lost is just my excuse, for when I say "I'm fine"
I'm almost afraid of what would happen if I found my way
I'd have to stop thinking and actually live my life from day to day
Stop wondering about the future and dwelling in the past
Create some pease for my mind by letting go at last
But by letting go does it mean I've finally given up?
All my dreams and goals in life no longer fill my cup
If I ever find the way, what's left to look forward to?
Is it the end? Are you done? What else is there to do?
Although the end is sad indeed, the ride can be quite fun
By the time I'm at the end, I might be ready to be done
The hope that I will find my path in life makes me feel alive
So sometimes feeling lost inside is the only way to survive
