I’m stuck in this place

    Where I cannot decide whether life is simple like everybody around me seems to think,

        or if it is unimaginably complex like I have come to believe over the past few years.

And I’m not quite sure if staying inside of my head is a safe place,

    or if it’s where the mess begins.

        Am I crazy?

            Or have I convinced myself that I am.

I cannot find peace because I have not yet discovered what side of life is important to me.

    I’m afraid that I will never find the balance between my past imaginings,

        and the present reality.

And I’m stuck in this place

    with no passion.
