Lost

Lost

A Poem by Johanna
"

I wrote this at work actually.. while helping customers haha, I´m glad people theese days like to pay with card. Hope you guys like it.

"

Picked the wrong road, I got misled

You went right, and I went left

I lost myself in love´s maze

Been here before, but I don´t know this place

 

Behind the trees the sun is low

Behind my pain I see your face

Walking behind me, grey shadow

All the love that went to waste

I don´t know where to go

Lost, but if it wasn´t for you

That wouldn´t be the case

 

It´s getting dark, I keep walking on my path

Can´t turn around, don´t know the way back

My shoes make clear footprints in the ground

But my broken heart I hide from everyone

 

I´m tired now, but I can´t stop

Stopping feels like giving up

And what if, what if you catch up

With your words, lies

Your burning eyes

Flowers ahead blooming bright

But were I walked past the beauty dies

 

I walk on; get to a lake

Reflecting all of my mistakes

How did I get into this mess?

Confusion and teardrops on the surface

I really thought I had won, it was right

Thought you were the one

I keep walking through the night

Finally I see the sun

Shining down

On a cold, lonely human being

With many shortcuts she´s not seeing

Heartbroken, down there on the ground

Lost, waiting to be found

There is a beauty in being lost.
There is a yearning to be found from the state of being lost.
You put them quite beautifully.

The melancholy feel of this goes all the way down the page... and you wrote this at work and got paid for it... Ditto to that... as with your other write... there is a sense of longing in your words... may be that's just the way you wanted to write this... seems they were written in a relatively back to back order... one right after another...

It's again an awesome write by you. Your thoughts're great here. I don't think it's a poem, i think it's a great movie preview... :P i liked your starting too... but i got one error... in this line, check it out
"
"But were I walk past the beauty dies", here, you didn't write it grammatically correct, you've to write it as this.... "But Were I WALKED Past The Beauty Dies"... you can replace it with my this line if you want to correct it to. :)

Anyway, it was a minor fault only, don't take tension, you're stilll my best Writer :) soon, i'm gonna read your books/story's too as i'd said :) Until keep writing and keep posting :)

I like this. You convey very well, the conflict of two people that fall into and out of love, and of course the hurt involved. You paint a fine word picture of these feelings. Very nice writing.
