Lost

Have you ever

looked in the mirror

and not recognized

the figure staring back at you?

Have you ever

felt so lost

you didn't know

if you would ever find you again?

I have.

Humans are constantly changing

to fit the times.

Changing to meet what is

expected of us.

To fit in.

To be allowed happiness.

I think I got lost somewhere.

Where did I go?

Why don't I fit in the mold

created for me by society?

Sometimes I want to badly

to just blend in.

But it will never happen.

I will always be different.

I will never be what they want me to be.

Maybe someday

I will be able to accept that.
