Lost
When you're feeling lost, where do you go?

Ness_Doublet in Poetry & Free Verse

Sinking up

When the world sinks around me

When I feel I'm drowning

I turn to the things of the younger me

The happier me.

I dig up my cards

I boot up my xbox

I tune up the songs on my personal mobile radio

Getting

Lost all over again between the

Words and thoughts of my youth the

Channels of joy, the old tracts of passion

Lost

But still here. Still breathing.

The passage of time between then and now

It brings me back to safety.

For if I lived once, was happy even once

I shall one day lose myself in happiness once

More.
