Lost Myself Along the Way
Come to think of it
I'm not entirely sure
where I lost myself
Maybe it was in those 8 hours
of class time
lost in notes and definitions
In beds of strangers or
old friends who I no longer
know the whereabouts of
Did I lose myself somewhere
along those roads driven on
late nights to places with people
whose faces I won't ever recall?
Did I leave myself behind in
books or shows or at the cinema?
Or maybe it was the ticking of the clocks
and the counting of time
waiting for better times
that never came
Come to think of it
I'm not entirely sure I lost myself
I'm not entirely sure I had myself
Maybe all these places
are where I've found myself
