Where Is My Meaning

Inside me , a hollowness, that gains power with a certain fright
What caused this, I am not positive an answer will ever  appear
I have ran, then walked, imagery and literally, in the dark night

I look for one champion, maybe she will come remove this fear
Something can alleviate all, and can fix, what was has been torn 
What caused this, I am not positive an answer will ever appear

Long have I been left wandering, my soul and my shoes worn
A search that literally has led nowhere, and seen minimal gain
Something can alleviate all, and can fix, what was has been torn 

Mostly I ponder in misery, and the expression of my petty pain
But truly I have searched, only wanting to discover my own way
A search that literally has led nowhere, and seen minimal gain

Most definitely this must end, and I seek daily, awaiting that day
Vagueness and misunderstanding are the things that find me dear
But truly I have searched, only wanting to discover my own way

The trail always hidden, the way to me, that is never made clear
Shining bright, everything revealed, a time remembered, insight
Vagueness and misunderstanding are the things that find me dear
I have ran, then walked, imagery and literally, in the dark night

Wayland; This is sad, but well written. It gives me the feeling that you are not happy. Sometimes we need to search within ourselves. We can only be what we want to be. We can not please everyone - we have to please ourselves first. I have a new poem Englisg and Spanish. ( I Want To Love You ) Happy Easter and many blessings. Lucilla
