Have you ever lost yourself?
\nSearched for yourself in so many people,
\nHoped that in the heartbreaks the pieces of you,
\nStayed with them.
\nAnd now you want to play a Humpty dumpty.
\nBut even that cannot put you back together again.<\/p>\n
Flood yourself with questions,
\nThat only drown you in more questions than answers.
\nWhen falling deeper into the rabbit hole,
\nFeels right but it is everything but.<\/p>\n
Have you ever put a hand on your chest and felt,
\nFelt the heart beating feel like someone else’s.
\nEvery road has a another intertwining with it,
\nFind yourself at crossroads and you can’t move.
\nYou lack the direction, the purpose, and inspiration.<\/p>\n
Who are you? The world asked
\nAnother character in this book called life, he responded.
\nIs that life if you can leave a name to it? The world asked.
\nAs silence fell upon the earth,
\nAnd day was replaced by night.
\nThe boy wondered the ends of the earth searching
\nSearching for a an answer that was inside him.
\nRather than around him<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
