Done

Why run Why fight Hide in the dark Ignore the light Find shelter Helter skelter Embrace the pain Let tears reign Cruel sin Don't give in Hold yourself Clutch your wealth "don't let greed Rule your need" Don't care Won't share Breath in With sour grin Cover your heart And keep apart Now you're lost That's the cost

Thank you. I have been the most peaceful I have ever been; it took getting lost to reach that place.

That makes me feel sad. I hate the moments in my life that I feel lost. I hope you find peace within yourself Candide.
