Feeling Lost

Why do I feel like I’m drifting,
Nothing to tether me down.
Feeling lost, alone and so lonely
My face in a permanent frown.

It feels like there’s no one who loves me,
No one who cares how I feel.
No one who shares my emotions,
Not one who can help me to heal.

My sons are my reason for living, 
Each in his own special way
Make my life so much better,
I’ll love them to my last dying day.

And so goes my life,
The day after day. 
The day I feel happy,
Seems so far away.
