lost ..not unlike you

Being lost..

does not always carry with it

..the same experience for each person.

An impenetrable ache/

tempered only by..

the fleeting hope

..that with tomorrow's sun

will arise along with it..

a new opportunity/

to seize control over my wandering mind.

I am lost

not unlike you.

You are searching for an enigma

not unlike me.

Hoping for an answer..

to a question

..written in a foreign tongue.

Energy gathers..

as my feet head in a new direction.

Winds whisper the words

..of a subconscious breaking the surface.

Eight months in limbo/

too proud to admit/

when life had steered itself in a direction/

far from where I'd planned/

and too close to the scenario I feared.

Feeling pain

and overwhelming insecurity

have come to consume my days.

What causes my certain ailment..

are the very actions

..that sustain it's existence.

It became easy..

even second nature

..to analyze away my problems

and assert my goals

to dreams..

I cannot make myself whole-heartedly believe in.

I try to convince myself

that it is my unique mind

and all-encompassing passion

that have brought me to this day and state of existing.

However..

it's been this trust in my potential/

the confidence in my ability/

and my assuredness of my vision/

..that has led me down this path.
