Lost

It’s hard this battle I fight inside myself Not knowing who I am anymore Emotions and feelings constantly racing through me But I can’t express myself as I did before Sleepless nights with thoughts of when I lost myself Trying hard to pinpoint when it all went wrong Memories of my happiness are slowly fading This confusion has been around far too long Looking in the mirror is pointless When you don’t recognize the person that you see Staring so long into my own eyes Hoping to catch a glimpse of who is, was me.. written by matena snegirev

This is similar to how I have been feeling. I dont even recognize the person in the mirror anymore. i have at times become someone I never thought I would. Thank you for sharing. Wonderful write.
