Lost Poem by Sarah Persson
Lost
I've walked along this rocky ledge,
Amidst the black and ash filled cloud,
There beats my heart, there lives my soul,
Is this my destiny, to just grow old?
Can it be, can it be so,
That somewhere, some how, someone knows,
That somewhere there is evidence,
The clues that make this all make sense?
I've turned up stones, I've opened doors,
I've swept dead leaves off dusty floors,
Yet still with nothing clear in mind,
I search for something more to find.
If only I could live, not hide,
My search could lead me far and wide,
And surely then, yes surely then,
I'd fill this empty hole inside.
I've seen, I've dreamed, where I should be,
Yet still I wandered aimlessly,
Now feeling lost and incomplete,
Do I surrender, admit defeat?
With all I hold inside of me,
I cannot let this overwhelm me,
I need to stand up tall, be strong
And find my sense again, belong.
I search for something more to find. I'd fill this empty hole inside. Do I surrender, admit defeat? i have to be strong and stand tall.. i h ve to find myself now......... thank u for your great thoughts. we all have such thoughts. but you penned it and gave it lively expressions.. thank u, tony

You are one of the rare poets that improve with each writing. I am amazed and delighted at your grasp of the art. Sarah dear I am so glad to be able to say that your abilities and talent are forever in bloom.....I wonder if you recognize this too.
