Finding Yourself In the Palm of Your Hand
Loneliness
Within the palm of your hand
Your life
Under a rock
Your future
A few paces behind you
Pain
Within the crevices of your mind
Good deeds
In a fast food dumpster
Happiness
On a street corner
Friends
In the last place you look
Faith
In a faithless person
Life
Inside of a hollowed corpse
Your soul
Trapped inside of a mirror
Fear
In and around your fingernails
Yourself
Way down deep in a puddle of loneliness
