Where I am now and where I want to be feel like they are oceans apart. Going from lost to found seems easy, but what happens when found is a mystery and lost is the never ending doubt of identity and self worth.
My lost looks like a cycle: Me finding a spark of inspiration Chasing it relentlessly Hitting a wall of self doubt and "reality" And going back to bed because the weight of the world is too much today.
My lost feels like a collection of ups and downs Up what I have to offer the world and the skills that I have will help people. Down I am incapable of finding love in this body of mine People donβt look for inner beauty the way they do in movies, The self worth I feel is a illusion I created for myself because I am alone.
My lost feels like a never ending stomach ache that I am doomed to have forever. The body becomes so used to pain it numbs the senses. The pounding in my head tells me the choices I make will never amount to anything. I wonder if anyone feels the same way I do Finding a friend in the darkness sounds nice right now.
