Lost

"Lost"


Lost for so long in what I now see were only Words

Words that were like music to my ears
bringing with them much Joy

Joy that for the first time I opened my 
heart to and allowed In

In love for the first time with a man
who cannot love me in Return

Return to me the wall that I once counted on 
to shelter me from falling In love and allowing
me to experience false Joy when hearing his Words

His words, A man that because of his own pain is 
unable to love me and has brought me back to my sad
beginning where I am completely
