Lost Identity in the Mind of a Dreamer

Have you ever lost yourself

So lost that you can never find again

So lost that there is no return

No place of safety

No path back to your happiness

Where is the satisfaction

Where is the real you

That you once thought you had

That is now gone

And you look for her everywhere

You know she is there but where

Deep deep inside

In a place where she can’t be found

Or taken out of

You try and you try to find her

No luck

She is hidden

She won’t free from this cave

That is keeping her held in captivity

She can’t escape from the dark

And find the light in the tunnel

Hidden behind bars

Is where she is trapped

And she continues to long for her escape, which seems to never happen

If she could break free

And escape

She could maybe someday find what she has been searching for all along

All along she has wanted to find peace and hope within herself

But when she is gone and can’t be found

Neither can all that she has ever wanted

A dream that has been broken

A dream that is chased but never found

All this chasing, and never finding what is dreamt of

Is the reason for being dissatisfied

What wants to be found

Can be found

But in trying to be found it gets hidden deeper and deeper

If this cell would just let its wall down maybe one day with some effort this jewel could be gotten hold of and all of a sudden this once hidden and inaccessible dream would be in the hands of the dreamer, who went from being a hopeless dreamer to a dreamer with the power of life in her hands
