    Lost

    What is life about and why do I go through this?
    I love my wife, but really miss my kids.
    Anticipation I have; My ambition there is none.
    So confident I was, felt there was something that I should have won.
    Now the only thing I do is sit and stare.
    Letting time pass my by, not a need to go anywhere.
    Pennies and dimes to save that's all that I have
    Should have went to college- I'm just a high-school grad.
    It's complicated now being an adult and all-
    Tired of blaming everyone, by  now I should take the fall.
    Movies help me forget because they are not realistic
    I know I can do better for myself
    If only I had listened.
    The world started to crumble a few years ago
    Searching for jobs; doing interviews
    I AM TIRED OF HEARING NO!


    Help me Lord for I know not who I am
    I dream every night of who I want to be
    Once I wake I jump and stand
    Wash my face, look in the mirror
    And still's there's me.

    I really liked this poem. It is very deep and what a lot of us are thinking but can't say...nice

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
