Is This Me?

As we try to find out who we are We tend to forget who we've been They always say you're the happiest When you have everything that you need Can obtain anything that you ever wanted But what about the price you pay What good is having everything When you cant even look in the mirror Because of the route you have taken. What is it that has occurred What is that has changed I don’t know what to think Am I simply deranged I started out so well so great and nice Now attitude has changed From that sweet sugar to that dirty spice I fear what I have become, I am afraid to even see I cant believe that person in the mirror Looking back at me is me.

Thought provoking poem. I think many get caught up in this type of thing. The quest for things often pulls people over the line. Good message in this poem. Thank you for sharing it and for your kind comment. Karen
