Lost In My Life
By GothicBlack
All I need
Is a little bit
Of tenderness
Of kindness on your part
A sort of reminder
I just wish I could
Fit the mold of me
I just want to be
More like myself
Like I used to be
Were have I gone?
Can you find me?
I’ve seemed to have
Lost myself along the way
To my very own life
I’m a slave to my mind
What is going on
I can not see
What’s in front of me
Past ghost haunts me
Like a moth to a flame
But my wings
They’re shriveled up
And my brain can’t comprehended
What has happened here
The path I took in life
Has led me to this dead end
And I can not figure out
How I got myself here
At the end of my road
Its not a new beginning
But the beginning to my end
For I can not move on, beyond myself
I can not find tenderness
In a world so callous and cold
My life spun out of control
And I am simply the aftermath
Waiting for time to catch up with me
And leave me here all alone

Do you share my exact thoughts? No, they must be yours, because insofar as I know, I am not able to write with such passion and poetic questioning. You are a wonderful poet.
