Poetry & Self-Awareness

---

Lost identity 

Searching for it has left me breathlessly

But I still search endlessly 

I’ve found the wrong ones accidently

But I learned from those mistakes

I needed a break

I wasn’t entirely awake

The mistakes I embraced

I learn to take them as lessons instead of a disgrace

It wasn’t lost, just misplaced 

The pain wasn’t a waste

It gave me a different perspective, a different taste

While my mind screamed for space, I almost escaped
