When thinking
Of a word that best describes me
The word that comes into focus
Most of the time is
Lost

Im lost in a sea of darkness
I've friends all around me
But none who know how I feel
Or I feel I can talk to.

I'm lost because I don't feel welcome
Like I don't belong.
When all I do is try
Try try try

Yet I'm still here
Floating
Drifting towards the inevitably of death
Waiting to feel just a little less lost.
