Lost


Hello Mr. Or Ms. Lost how do you feel? 
You feel as if you belong to one group and then another  
Trying to find that appeal you want 
Trying to find that missing thought or piece to complete you 
Have you found it? 
Or you feel as if your on a different beat then others. 
Your watching others like a movie 
The characters are happy and laughing 
But you are the extras apart of that movie quietly observing 
Wishing to be apart of a caring loving sea but you are that lost teardrop railing down your luminous eyes. 
 
You feel as if no one understands you, how could they 
You are an unexplained dark cloud of mist floating quietly and soundly to an unknown place  
Your alone, but are you expressing your beautiful sorrowful mind?
Where could a lonely dark cloud like you could go?
Anywhere but here you would say  
Because you feel trapped  
your suffocating 
Who is doing this? 
Your lover, your father, your sister, your brother, or is it you 
You didn't know that you could be your own sun brightly guiding your way...
Home.
But you can also be a cage for your own soul locking you away in your dark mist leading you to an 
unknown abyss 
Please tell me lost child that you have found your way  
Please stop feeling like your worthless like that paper you had balled up 
when you were filled with such anguish
I need you to stop killing your soul  
Stop feeling like your soul and that beautiful mind of yours is meaningless 
Let it free so it's not lost 
You will know why you were lost 
It was because you didn't  let your soul go free of all your dark negativity 
And find it's way home.
But how can I speak when I haven't done the same?
