" LOST "

" LOST "

Nowhere within a circle
I'm atop a melting iceberg
Walking a forgotten trail
And I'm uttering a forgotten word
Lost,

Oh, I'm struggling...

Talking with no one there
Listening to the empty voices
Sitting in a forsaken chair
Oh, I'm slipping, I'm slipping away
And all my fears have come to play...

Loving, in a hateful world
Singing, to the empty rows
Taking, but only from myself
And I'm crying over irrelevant sorrows
I'm lost, I've lost my lonesome way
Lost in the words that remind me
Of long gone days...

Nowhere within a circle
I'm atop a melting iceberg
And I'm uttering that lonely word
Lost,
Where all my fears,
Have come to haunt me...

Tony Taylor.  (Chicago)

Took me to another world with this one, often times I feel the same way. I agree with much of what is said here as well as the feelings that are associated. "Oh, I'm slipping, I'm slipping away
And all my fears have come to play..." <--- Pure gold

Always nice to read your work
