I have lost...
Lost my way.
Lost my path.
Lost my soul.
Lost love.
Lost my battle.
Lost myself.
All I have left is the truth.
I look inside the truth...
I find myself.
I look inside myself...
I find my courage.
I look inside my courage.
I find my way to victory.
I look inside victory...
I find love.
I look inside love...
I find my soul.
I look inside my soul...
I find my path.
I follow the path...
I find my way.

In this song you sound exactly like Justin...
Brilliant... once again my new old friend.. -
I think this little write of your might actually save me. I have een really struggling lately, and that is part of the reason I have been away from AllPoetry. Truly you have given me hope. This was an amazing poem. The development was perfect, and for me, extremely encouraging.

Beautifully Penned
My new old friend
Lovely to read you once again
I love how you roll back to the inside of your soul
I agree with you if you follow your path
You shall find your way today inside of yesterday

Bravo!
Hey, Kurt, this was a pleasant surprise!
I was expecting something "dark" when I saw the category. But this is actually inspirational as a way through the 'dark'. Very well done with pithy simplicity and wisdom.

A good write don get me wrong and as much as it may mean behind it I do not feel that it was up to your usual standrads..... you are a good poet but i feel it was notr one of your greatest pieces. THE DARK

Agreed with EternalIceQueen. Reminds me of my childhood on the Indian Reservations, the ceremonies, the sweats...
Thank you for that recall. -
it takes courage to seek truth, but in truth there is courage.

Well, I try not to dwell on depressing shit... I have suicidal tendencies, and if i get too far down the dark road, I cant help wanting to blow my brains out. so, I take my meds, and try to think happy thaughts.

A unique format, and although repetitive, still graceful and beauteous. I feel like I have lost just about everything at this juncture in my life...but I have not yet given up my search for myself. One day, I am sure I will find the path of universal truths that will allow me to locate my soul, wherever it has ventured off to. There is definite hope in this piece. Thank you for directing me here.
Many blessings,
Raven Aurora
