Poem: Feeling Lost

Poem Summary

"Feeling Lost" is about how others enjoy solitude while she feels lost with no idea how to handle all those quiet moments alone.

She hides these feelings and keeps on moving pretending everything is fine.

"Feeling Lost"

She has no idea
how to spend moments alone,
while others crave solitude.

After too many hours
she feels on edge,
like she is lost at sea
with no way of returning to shore.

She tells no one know
of these feelings hiding deep,
as she goes through the motions
pretending all is fine.
