Lost

By beginning_poet

lost in my own thoughts,
so many to list.
one minute i'm happy,
the next i'm pissed.

who do i tell?
it cannot be answered.
i wish i could control my thoughts,
i wish they could be mastered.

i am unable to express
the way i truly feel
or what i really think,
i don't know if i'm reallt real.

i want to be on top
of what my mind thinks
its easier said than done
because control slowly shrinks.

so much i must put up with
too much that can be said...
"get over it" my dad said...
"at least your not dead"

    what a horrible thing to say. **wants to smack your dad upside the head with a brick**... well, dont get over it, if you stop thinking you are dead. Just understand as best you can and remember.
