Lost

Lost, forgotten, downtrodden, 
My horizon I sought to broaden. 
Myself I seemed to have lost. 
Inner demon Whispers fill every thought. 
Subconsciousness swayed, and dismayed.
I always give myself the lowest grade,
afraid of hidden potential. 
I just think I'm mental. 
Playing dumb to lower expectations, 
only leaves me with frustrations. 
Change is all I crave, 
but all I can see is my grave.
