Empty Straws

There are times When I'm alone That I feel so lost I am no longer Who I was I am not yet Who I hope to be Somewhere in the middle I grasp at empty straws

I believe we all position ourselves there at times and some stay longer than others, I know. This is so descriptive and clear in meanxing. Excellent flow and just a terrific read my friend. Michael
