Searching For My Lost World

Updated on February 6, 2011

I Am In My Own Prison

I look as far as my eyes can see

I want to be there

I want to feel the joy of everything I ever dreamed of

I search high and low for all the answers

When all the time the answers were right in front of me

They just were not clear

I had to listen and hear them over and over again

Told to me a different way

I had to see them come to life and talk to me

How could I make this happen ?

Who could I ask for advice ?

Everyone is so busy

Nobody has the time for me

Don't they see my ambition ?

Don't they see my drive ?

I have direction all I need is someone else to help me on my course

No matter what I do I never go far enough

I dream the dream but somehow someway my dreams fade away

I didn't want my dreams to leave and disappear

I want to bring them to life

I want to help others with my dreams so they can prosper too

Don't they see I am trying to help them also ?

Nobody cares?

Why do I continue if no one else does ?

It is my passion that I cannot hide

I cannot forget no matter how hard I try

I try to be like everyone else and soon I am back where I started

Looking for ways to make my life so much better

What do I have to show for it ?

Not as much as  I would have expected after all this time

I am silly I don't feel the greatest

Maybe I am just a little under the weather

But that is not going to stop me now or ever

I will rise with my inner power in hand and feel the energy vibrate through my every thought

I will not spend any more time on what I have lost to get this far

But now I can see what I have and always have had

I just didn't see it and couldn't believe it

I had to find it for myself and be not willing for others to tell me it was something else

I have to build up my own confidence and concentrate on my own abilities.

Many years I have been defeated over and over again

By others who have nothing more than me but I have listened as they have boasted what they can do

In time I have seen them one by one fall victim to their own short comings

Now I break away from the norm

I put myself in a class all of my own

I turn to my writings to start my progress

Then I follow with my actions to seek my direction

I feel so much love and potential in my thoughts

As I move forward to spread my new ideas and deep six all my fears

Life is for the living and  Thank God I am still here

Now I share them with those who search for their own true self

To a journey that we can share and be so blessed that we explain to others

How we feel and how to accomplish our dreams that have aluded us in the past

Now we can rejoice and celebrate with the new excitement

The place where we have reached so far and be proud that we can now find our way
