To Find Me

TO FIND ME

On a journey I’ve embarked
One many have taken
For many have been scarred
And their identity shaken.

Was it greed or desperation
A very thin line between both
This change is their creation
A creation now I loathe.

Subtle was the initiation
Went with indifference
Yet became the foundation
As slipped by the innocence.

A death came silent yet not fast
A merciless murder it was
The pleasure of it didn’t last
With time disappeared the cause.

The mirror showed a reflection
Of someone else but not mine
Was it just a matter of perception
Or was it fault of design.

“You’ve changed” a phrase I heard by all
Ignorance is bliss
And that was my fall
Now I reminisce.

Memories began to fade away
People went far
I pushed then too hard I’ll say
And now I’m alone in this war.

Nonetheless I’ll fight till I breathe
To bring back me
I know I lie somewhere beneath
I’ll find a way to find me.
