lost and alone
The wind whistles past, closing my eyes,
I don't feel like I belong here. Am I okay?
I question myself repeatedly to push away the pain.
Yet, I remain lost and alone, struggling to smile.

As people around me laugh and smile,
I can't seem to hold onto mine.
Tired of feeling this way,
I fear the thoughts that creep into my head when I'm alone.

Lost in my own mind, I feel small,
Lacking happiness, connection, and love.
I want to scream, to shout, but my voice is silenced by my thoughts.

Yet, hope remains.
I must ignite a flame within my heart,
To find a love of life once again.
Though unsure of the outcome,
I hold onto faith that I can.
