It started off with the ignorance of youth I needed to be the best at all but myself Making me a need in me that wrestled control To do anything, say all the words, promising One look for some, another to my mother Half truths found live far less than lies seem to Circles of talk, deceptively led to life so lonely They all saw my rouse, they walked away Only myself the fool to believe myself in truth I only wanted to be liked, only lied to be so But fake is to be cut loose, and as I am and have been, I no longer know in truth who I really am. Now here. Now lost to who I am or what I want. Conclusion less.
