Zackary Myers Poet Free verse

From Lost to Found

I have lost, what I need

Losing all that I need to believe

I am cold, I can’t breathe 

I’ll do all that I need to succeed





I’ve become what I hate

I am losing my soul

While I stray from the path

Everything that I’ve known





This is all a mistake 

This is out of control 

As I stray from the path

Everything that I’ve known





I have found, what I need

Gaining all that I need to believe

Safe and sound, I can breath 

I’ve done all that I need to succeed





I’ve become what I love 

I am finding my soul

While I gain from the path 

Everything that I know





This is not a mistake 

This is in my control 

As I gain from the path 

Everything that I know

Reason A. Poteet July 13, 2025 at 4:45 AM Love your piece on the the soul - that is what hit me in it. Truly the soul is eternal and can never be lost as such - but we can determine its dwelling place for eternity. The events in our lives are truly the path of our soul towards heaven or hell. Nice Write, Zach.
