Lost In This Life

Lost......Broken,

Endless fears unspoken.

Torn.......Shattered,

This Heart that NEVER mattered.

Lies.......Deception,

Striving for perfection.

Empty.........Hollow,

Yet Pain is sure to follow.

Hopeless......Failure,

Shame is mine to treasure.

Weary.........Weak,

With nothing left to seek.
