Lost And Found
By: Noah Eaton
4/3/01

Sometimes I can barely move, I feel so helplessly
Glancing through the photo albums, lost in ongoing dilly-dally
Seeing how everyone else smiles so much, but I am a saddened waif
I’m homesick for where the heart is, and I am home, but no one’s there to hold my hand

I try and talk to anybody, but they can’t se me
Can’t identify the tears falling down my cheeks and see that I am empty
I pick up the phone, trying to talk to someone that I can share my grief
Hit hard with that response of sorrow that leaves me dingy

I struggle to sleep at night feeling this way
Feeling buried in the lost and found everyday
Every time I smile, something tends to take it away
Tornadic weeps leave me behind glooms barricade

Why can’t they hear me cry at all
Why can’t I erase this sadness from my face
Why can’t they see me at all
I need someone to talk to, to chase this pain away

I never leave behind my faith or gumption
But I always feel clouded, I feel I don’t have anybody
I have faith I’ll find everything, but I need something more now
I feel dilapidated, I have to have someone somehow

Why can’t they hear me cry at all
Why can’t I erase this sadness from my face
Why can’t they see me at all
I need someone to talk to, to chase this pain away

Please God, I need this...

Pain such a simple word. Can be felt but not always seen. I read your words and yes, felt your pain.

You have spoken to me ... us ... and you can always speak to God.

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

PS. Noah I admire how you so easily seem to be able to express yourself so richly through your writing!!!!
