Lost

by DisturbedDisorder

Published December 16, 2010

Suddenly, I’ve lost myself,
Everything I knew is wrong,
I feel like I’m falling,
And clarity is what I long.

My friends go and stab my back,
Comfort moves away,
And when people ask how I am,
I’m not quite sure what to say.

I am lost,
And confused wouldn’t be a lie,
But everyone is as lost as me
And all I can do is try.

This is really good, not much to say apart from this little bit;

I'm not sure about this line, the rest of the poem is a bit more subtle and this is more 'in your face'
Hope this was helpful :)

There's so much in just three stanzas and the rhyming made it flow all the better. The feelings are so strong that I can relate to the person. Wonderful! Keep writing!
