When I am alone, I question my life. It teases and it taunts me.
I sometimes find I’m drifting and trying to understand the hazy vision out of reach.
It’s always slightly out of sight, where darkness hides the life’s light.
I often wonder if I’m truly worthy of the life I’ve been blessed.
I struggle to bring clarity, to focus through the haze, to understand it all.
While questions bring no solitude, each incident, each moment passed, adds to the next.
There is a part of me that feels different,
something that I can’t quite see,
something that I can’t quite feel.
I have known and faced many trails. I search through days that have been hard and so unreal.
I ride this roller-coaster of emotions as I try to make it through another day.
But this ‘thing’ is always there. I feel so lost and sad at times, angry and unforgiving.
Whatever it is, whatever caused this feeling, as confused as I feel now, perhaps I make it harder.
No matter the obstacle, every day holds promise, never knowing why.
I think the hardest part is, can we ever truly know and understand it all.
