Lost In Space

5/19/17


Lost in space
Little to no faith
Can't find my place
Or always keep up the pace
Among animals and the human race
Don't recognize the face
I see in the mirror, not even a fragment or trace
What exactly is it that I seek and chase?

Something unexplainable
Purely unbreakable
And untraceable
Yet irreplaceable
Meaning it will not always be available

Not doing well at setting a course
The problems come from the source
Despite all the friction and force
It 's mostly erratic, like certain waves at wharfs

All over the motherland
Difficult to understand
Despite what is on the other hand

Something still missing
Continually drifting
Am I really existing?
Or is their a catch, like there always is in fine printing
