The Lost Me
I have lost so much of ME lately
I no longer know who I am
Don’t know if want to look for the lost ME
Or if I even give a damn
The lost Me no longer felt worthy enough
Just seemed to just annoy and irritate
Said and did so many things wrong
No longer anyone’s mate
The lost ME felt incredibly alone
So sad and unsure
Uncertain how to just be anymore
For fear of upsetting others more
The lost Me felt very criticised
On tender hooks constantly
Felt trapped and suffocated
No longer free to be ME
The lost Me no longer had confidence
In everything that was just ME
Pretending to be ok
As Me was dying slowly
So do I search for the lost ME
Is it even worth trying
Or accept ME is now gone
Just continue on
Silently crying….
