Deep loss of self

Deep loss of self

Setting deep within

Sitting in a room

All alone again

Hard to grasp who I am

And where I am going now

I am just sitting in darkness

I am lost and alone

Dreaming of a place called home

That place of warmth and light

Where did that safe place go

Instead I sit here in the dark

My head is in my hands

Sitting here in deep self loss

This wasn’t what I planned

To be alone and lost

To lose what I cherished most

This pain cuts deep

I sit here in the dark, lonely and weep

Nothing else to do

And that’s the sad and sorry tale

Of a man who lost everything

Including himself.
