Lost Searching
c
Up and down
All around my mind goes
Spinning out of control
All I see is moving shadows
Spiraling, falling, plummeting,
Going down, down, down,
The blackness is drowning
All throughout the town
Never ending tunnel of darkness
Fear of being lost forever
All one big mess
Here is to the never
Haunting words and faces following
Complaints and failure
All I hear ever
Always being the traitor
Never meaning to hurt anyone
Trying to help everyone else
Always doing my best for everyone
Never taking time for myself
Lost in the darkness
Wondering aimlessly
Hoping for happiness
Searching around with no sight
No feelings, no hope
Just looking for the light
Drowned by darkness
Searching for myself
