Lost

By Dragonfly

Memories cascade down the pavement,
as my mind bursts with exciment
of words unsaid, yet greatly felt.

A few stand out of the collage
and remind me of the worst days
and the best months.

It terrifies me that somewhere
through out this process
of "getting old" I lost myself.

And it horrifies me further that
I actually perfer this self.

So please steal me away
and remind my soul
of what is lost.

And what i can gain.

    This does make me ponder also, for when we are lost that is when we can surely escape...

    Thoughtful proposition unless perhaps you actually found yourself? Only time is lost in the end, and lost time is like lost money, it never comes back to you - now I'm depressed! Thanks.
