Poetry- I am

I am

When all is said and done
And you’ve all gone to bed
Thinking that the day is won
I can’t escape my mind
Tossing and turning
Knowing every choice I made was wrong
I’m burning, yearning for a purpose
That I know is never coming
I am lost
I am broken
And I don’t know which course to take
I can’t stand to be wrong again
Can’t stand to make another mistake
Of who to trust
Of who to love
I’m spiraling
I’m way off course
Can’t find what I must
I am lost
I am broken
I am wrong
