Who are we and where are we going?
What are dreams and how do we fulfil them?
So many things have changed in my life,
So much has happened to me.
I've lost touch with who I am,
I don't know myself anymore.
I used to have dreams and knew how to get there,
Now I don't know.
Am I going here or going there?
Am I happy or am I sad?
When will I get where I am going?
When will I know the world as it is?
When will I know who I am again?
When will I know true happiness?
When will I know true love?
There is soo much missing in my life,
There are big gaps left by hurtful things,
I have never hurt anyone in my life,
Made others happy while inside I screamed.
I was screaming out for help...
Someone tell me what's gone wrong.
Where did I fall and make my mistakes?
Can't someone tell me what's going on?
Why can no-one hear me screaming?
Why are my screams unheard?
Why are my requests going unanswered?
Is there something wrong with me?
Then I wake up...
It was all but a dream.
I look around my familiar room,
I was not dreaming,
I am yearning for something,
I am screaming for help,
But my screams go unheard,
Everyones too busy with their own lives.

If you're trying as hard as you say and yet, nothing, then you're doing something wrong.

I'm bad with advice, but you've tried coming right out and talking to people about this, right?  That's the first thing to do if you haven't.  I think you did a great job on the poem !

This was great, but I won't give advice. I'm not good with that, but good luck!


I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Melster:

The title of this poem caught my attention. Now I've read one of your poems. Good job by the way and like me you have many questions of how and when. Good luck finding the good in life(its there, can be hard to see somtimes)but its there. If your trying so hard to please everyone else and your unhappy mabye you should take a step back and do something to make you happy instead.Take care.

Thanks guys I will hopefully sort my life out soon!  It is all very complex at the moment but soon it will come to fit in!  Life was never meant to be easy - if it was we would be given a script as to how it was going to work out!  Thanks for all your advice - I am trying to use it!!

Till next time - Melz!!

I can definately relate to this poem...i often feel that my old self has been lost never to return but i think thats part of growing up and discovering who you really are...even tho its a hard thing to do. I liked this poem a lot and hope things get easier for you and your questions get answered.
