Lost but Found

I found myself

In your arms

I realized what I'd been dreaming of

LOVE.

For so many years

I've been serarching for

Myself

I can't quite remember when I

Lost

Myself,

When I went

Numb.

But today

It hit me.

I remembered us

I realized that somehow

In losing

Us

I lost

Myself

I shunned my

Creativity

I gave you
Power.

In wanting to

Forget

How much I

Loved you

I stopped

Loving

Myself.

Tonight as I layed,

I remembered that I

Dreamt

My life

Happy, in love,

Creative

My medium

Pen and paper

I found

Myself

In your arms

Safe, secure,

Poetic.

I found myself and I realized

Love.
