Just a little lost Poem, by annonymouswonder, at My poetic side

I don’t feel like myself

I chose to surround myself with people I disagree with and I feel as though through the influence I’ve lost the originality of my opinion

Maybe it’s more grounded in fact than it was, but it's not mine

Everything just seems so warped

I feel like I don't enjoy things the way I used to

I ramble at every given opportunity, that’s not who I am

I changed my surrounding because I didn’t want to feel so desperate for attention

I’ve tried so hard to be chill and agreeable and “come into my own” that I don’t recognize myself and it’s a hard fact to face

I just want to know who it is staring at me in my reflection

I thought getting out of depression meant that I was better and that things would work out, but now that I’m not sad, I’m just confused

I can relate, I suppose at times we who face adversity don't always feel like the person we look at in the mirror. State of mind changes our thoughts of ourselves and how we and others look at ourselves. Deep down we're all the same walking through our lives wondering if people see the real you or me. Beautiful write

Now you have moved into a different place in yourself it can be confusing but that confusion will go away in time and your life will be wonderful.
