Am I lost

The man I used to be
No longer to be found          
The boy from long ago
Lost to a life
of bad decisions        
And regrets
                                                     
Will I be found        
Will someone seek me out          
Blinded by the darkness
Of my own decisions

Tracing my steps
To see where I've been            
Following a path
Lost long ago

Will I ever see the light
The light of a new me
A man who is happy
Happy with what he's become

Until I find my way out
From the dark woods          
I will wander aimlessly
Until exhaustion takes hold
                                                 
The little boy will sit and cry
Holding tight to his knees
The man will act out
In frustration and despair

Signalling to be found
But going unseen
In a loud, fucked up world        
No one had the time to look
                                                 
Do I really matter
Am I missed by any
Are their lives emptier
When I'm not there
