Lost

Lost

Walking through a path she's  always in search for something, could be the longing to belong, that friend that sticks closer than a brother or the feeling of a princess who is living her happily ever after with a prince charming.
Always in search for light,
 for meaning
for purpose
 yet it turns out to be a thick fume of smoke.

 Years long after yet none is found, she still walks through the same path
hoping for a smile from a stranger. Hoping to be held in a lovers embrace.
 Blinded to the real path she's on.  somewhere down that road clarity hits the passerby
She's been lost all the while
Going in circles of her own thoughts
Lost in her imaginations.
Lost in her expectations.
Lost in her thoughts of a lovers touch.
Lost in the fumes of the fire which the smoke emerges from.
Her feets are sore from the long walk she's been on.
Her heart is empty from the constant need to be filled by love she hopes for.
Her eyes have been washed from the thousand tears she shed
Her back hurts from the burden of expectations she carries.
 She's been lost for so long

The lover's embrace she yearns for, the friend's smile she hopes to see, the hand she waits on to take her fragile little hand into, the happiness she looks for from every crooked corner
All comes from one man who gave up his all for her.
She is lost
She is lost in his love
Lost in his embrace
Lost in his warmth
Lost in his affection
She is lost and never wants to be found.
