Finding Yourself

Finding  Yourself  

As you travel along on the path of your life
The lessons you learn in joy and in strife 
Times you quietly ponder certain events 
In what trials and tribulations represents 

Questioning the person you truly are
The thoughts you can have, so bizarre 
Certain things that you want to change
In your daily life you seek to rearrange 

Seeking to find yourself, within your life
To become aware of all troubles and strife
And delve deeper within your subconscious
To make them part of your waken conscious 
 
Seeking change deep within your soul
Deepest of emotions that take control 
Emotions exposed to the world outside
Within negative thoughts that may reside

Seeking something that is deep within 
Though unsure of where to begin
Deepest emotions that left a scar
Help find out who you truly are

Searching for your most inner self
Can be such a feat within itself
Seeking out to find who you truly are
You find within you a new repertoire
