Inside
Empty inside,
unable to fill the space.
It's gone, somewhere else,
lost without a trace.
I want to know what I'm missing,
everything is going right.
Why do I feel this way,
why am I seeing darkness, and no light.
Things are coming together,
everything I want is here.
What is holding me back,
what is it I fear.
Time keeps moving forward,
like it always does.
I'm just feeling so lost,
I'm not feeling any buzz.
I wish I knew what I wanted,
a way to sort it out.
I wish I knew what was missing,
what is life really about.
Shadows in my past,
make me want to see clear.
I can't help what happened yesterday,
I have to persevere.
Time is going forward,
the pace is so fast.
I need to hold it together,
how long can I last.
The feeling within me,
it's something unknown.
I've got a chance at a great life,
I don't want to be alone.
