I'm lost. No simple way to put it. I want to go somewhere with my life. But I'm lost. Without you, I'm lost. Because of you, I'm lost. But because of me, I'm stuck. I didn't stop you. I didn't stop them. I just listened. Obeyed. Lied to myself. Because of this, I'm stuck.
Very much to the point. No need for elaboration with this kind of literary assertiveness. Perhaps the best part of it, though, is how you make sure you own up for the things that you may have done to put yourself in the current situation, instead of just casting the shadow of blame on everyone else but yourself.
"But because of me,
I'm stuck."
This is candid and honest and suggests that you have a firm grip on reality and the circumstances. If nothing else, you've certainly got the first foot forward to getting out the situation. Very good.
Abstract yet profound. This is what makes it all the more intriguing. It's a nice write and makes one think what's going on in your head while evaluating what's going on in theirs.. !! :)

I think all of us at one time in our lives get a little bit stuck. I like this. I think by just writing this you are on you way to becoming unstuck... Nicely done...
Sounds like you let other people have too large of influences over your life, and now you don't know where to go with it. Stay strong, though, and, please, keep writing.
I made the mistake of losing contact with very good friends. I would do anything to know they are alright and to know how they lived. I like the poem. The wisdom to understand some people are the reason we want e alive and do great things. A excellent poem. You made me think.

In the end we are the ones who decide how we feel and let others makes us feel... like the saying goes "No one can make you feel inferior without your consent".
We've all been there at one point or another! What makes us or breaks us is whether we stay stuck or dig ourselves out of the holes. You're a stong person, you can do it!
My name is Victoria. I live large and dream even larger. My life consists of modeling in my free time and traveling the world but when I'm feeling down and out of control, I write. Writing inspires me.. more..
