Lost Along The Way
Here I am on my own once again
Reaching out to you my only friend
I need your hope to guide me home
I can't fight these demons all alone
Born to a world of constant hate
Where every turn is another mistake
So much time spent wondering why
Torn up inside but unable to cry
A landfill of lies buried at my feet
Too many promises I couldn't keep
I feel so withered and worn out
Tired of the drama and self doubt
My throat is sore from the screams
Waking up from fractured dreams
I feel like a stranger in my own skin
Only the mirror shows all of my sins
Hundreds of scars I don't regret
Each one a memory I'll never forget
Holding fast to remnants of my mind
A past of horror behind my eyes
And I will end as I once began
Suffering a life I don't understand
Twisted into a person I don't know
A wandering soul lost along the road

Thank you. It's been harder to write lately. Not exactly sure why but mostly feeling detached and disoriented, unable to focus long enough to finish anything worthy of posting
