I'm Lost

He kills me and I forget where I belong...

I’m Lost

I’m standing on a mountain

I’m on the very edge

Breathing all the fresh air in my lungs

Fighting all the fears

One voice tells me to back away from the deep end

Another voice is saying to just let go

My heart is on fire

Not even water can stop it from burning

I’m standing in front of my path

There is two ways to walk

Do I pick the one that leads back to you?

Or the one that escapes me from you?

I look up in the sky as I fall to the ground

I scream so loud, the birds have flown away

Leaving me drowning in my tears

You put yourself through the pain

Lonely? Its because you won’t let anyone close

I allow the hot steamy water pour down my face

It feels so heavy it weakens me

I just told you that you had your chance but I think you lost it

I don’t know if it was the right thing but it had to be said

I back away from the edge and walk away….

Oh! when our essence is tied to a difficult evolving relationship, to the procreation drive, to confused social/bio/psycho-logical driven actions to savor or lament. When our narrow blinders place us in the moment, conflicted and tending to believe that our current momentary decision will make-or-break our future. When we feel lost and alone. That is when we need to step back, consider the moment's real import on the length of our lives. To consider that even if years are invested, a change may be needed and change is more often better... especially if embraced. Not letting anyone close is an indication of the unconscious knowledge of this not being the right person.
peace, little one.
