I Am What You Are

At the lowest points in life, Is when it is discovered. I am consumed by you. I have lost myself, Or maybe I just never knew. The lights are looking dim these days. The skies are soaring low. Visions seem blurred, Confused completely on what to do. Days are shorter, Nights are longer. I never want to falter. But I no longer have a shelter. No safety. No security. I am on my own. I defend only myself. Who I am, Has yet to be found. I am no longer homeward bound. I let this go. I slip, I fall. Its never good enough. I thought I hit rock bottom, But I have never felt this low. How long, how much will I endure, Before I find something pure. I am pure, only of evil. I am nothing better than your enemy. I can only give back what you gave me. I am a product of what you have created.
