LOST

I AM LOST

IN WOODS OR NOWHERE ROADS

FINDING SEA OR MEETING THE SKY

STRUGGLING TO FIND

WHERE I BELONG.

LEAVING MY MARKS 

TO COME BACK AROUND

BACK AND FORTH 

AND FINDING PALACES

THAT I'VE ALREADY BEEN TO,

AND COME BACK

WHERE I BELONG.

STRUGGLING IN PATHS 

THAT I'VE NEVER SEEN,

WANTING TO REACH

WHERE I ALWAYS DREAMED

REACHING THE END

BUT FALLING BACK

TO THE SAME,

WHERE I BELONG.

IF I BELONG

 WHERE I ALREADY STAND

THEN WHY DO I TRY 

TO REACH 

WHERE I DON'T BELONG?

YET MY HEART SAYS

HERE, YOU BELONG.

THE QUESTION IS WHERE DO

WE ACTUALLY BELONG?

WHERE WE ARE

OR 

WHERE WE WILL BE

SUPPOSEDLY LOST,

AND  

AND ASKING OURSELVES 

THE SAME QUESTION YET AGAIN.

WANTING TO

SETTLE ONCE IN FOR ALL

WITHOUT STRUGGLING FOR PATHS

OR PHRASES TO FIT IN OR RHYME

OR MAYBE LOST.
