The Lost and Found
I lost myself somewhere.
It seemed I just didn’t care
Whether my life was good
Or I was living as I should.
I hunkered down in a lair
Made of many “I don’t cares”
And even more “leave me alones”
Until my insides felt like stones.
I stayed there many years;
Outside stoic, inside tears.
I knew I could never be enough.
One horrid day I saw the light;
A crack in the armor of my fright,
And nothing since has been the same.
I found the truth, I saw the game.
Once seen it could not be undone
Everything changes in the sun.
What I found when the light came in
Was myself, the one I had always been.
I knew I had always been enough.
