Finding Yourself

Sometimes it is when people are lost
That we soon begin to realize
That some
Don’t want to be found
Some want to be alone
And find themselves
They don’t want to be found,
Being lost to them
Is their only chance
Their chance at becoming something new
Something better
Not only for themselves
But for those around them,
Those that are lost
Aren’t always wanting to be looked for
But are wanted to be remembered
And want those who wish to find them to know
That they will not be lost forever
That for they will one day come back
For they have found themselves


The author's comments:

I have felt lost so many times throughout my life. I wrote this because I wanted to be able to say how I truly felt. I haven't shown anyone this poem, however, I wish I would. So many of my friends have worried and asked how I've been but I am just trying to find myself. I don't think some of my friends understand that me breaking away from them isn't me saying goodbye. It is me saying that I need to try and find myself and what I want to become.
