Floating Around

We are part of a fraction in the world All trying to find our place Floating like the air around us But the only difference is visibility and how we make used of it. What is our piece of the world What are we carving out for ourselves to live in The journey there is not easy The journey there is not always found But if it ever is, Then grab hold and never let go No matter how hopeless it feels in the moment Now isn't that easier said than done I myself cannot count on one hand the amount of things I stopped All for reasons of lacking motivation or feeling insecure Have not felt that what I am doing is enough to mean something We are part of a fraction of the world One that is made up of many types of people Some we can understand Some we cannot But we are on the same planet All trying to pave a way in the world All finding the stepping stones to it Even if it means losing things along the way Even if it means losing ourselves for a brief moment But there is a time When we are all alone Left with our thoughts Left with the memories Where we reflect Where we are reminded Where we are haunted Where we see what we had Where we see what we should hold onto
