lost identity

Lost Identity

What is my identity,

Contradicting thoughts,

Live in my brain, 

I don't know who I am,

 And don't know where I belong,

 

Am I good at anything,

 Worthy of praise,

Stuck in this puzzle,

That makes little sense,

Feeling like I have no purpose,

And I am just nonsense,

 

Will I ever reach my potential, 

Or is my purpose too far out of reach,

Stuck alone in my head, 

I lost motivation,

to search for my solution,

 

The misery creeps into my body,

As I have no clue,

What to do?

Time does not wait for me,

 And progresses by,

 I remain stuck in my sorrow,

 

Astray from my inspiration,

Pleading to the world,

That I want to come to an end, 

Disorientated by my inner notions,

That compromise my well-being,

What is my identity?

 I say again!
