Lost


Swirling tendrils of mist and thought dance before me
Blocking both vision and insight
Everywhere I turn seems like a dead end
With no escape from the confusion
Sighing inwardly, I close my eyes
Figuring it’s better to get lost in my mind than in reality

It’s not like it helps though
The things conjured in my mind are even worse
So I reopen my eyes and try to make sense of my surroundings
A few stumbling steps forward reveal nothing
The darkness
Once a familiar sight
Now completely foreign

Becoming desperate for light, I begin to panic
Even darker images loom from the corners of my eyes
These figures scare me even more
For they are from those horrible memories

I press on
In an attempt to escape the darkness
And the memories
Cautiously taking step after step onward
Wandering through this world in which I am lost

~~Poetry is written emotion~~
