Along the street I look
For something that life once took
Finding it would fix my heart
The one that the world tore apart
People would just walk right through me
As if they couldn’t see
Ignoring me as though I wasn’t there
Shouting at the world for pretending to ever care
Running in every single direction there is
Turning over every rock to see if there’s anything I missed
Keep passing this same thing each day
Something always made me scatter the other way
Got an unknown feeling whenever I got around it
That fear inside of me screaming for me to quit
I’ve gone everywhere I could
Yet again my legs led me here to this piece of wood
Panic spreads throughout my body as I feel compelled to move towards that door
Sad thing is, I don’t even know exactly what I’m looking for.

This is a very well done write...i can certainly relate....great job
Thank you, and a part of wishes you didn't yet I mean I'm glad you know someone out there knows how you feel at least.
I understand what you mean....and i promise you, you WILL find your way...but learn from the journey so as to be the person you were meant to be.

Clever write and a nice 'twist' at the end.
The unknown is a great part of life and the world, and is what keeps everything so fascinating to discover. It can be scary though, as can any experience for the first time.
Yeah well I can't tell if this is going to be a good one or not. But I appreciate your comment.
The way is there and that door will open into the joy of life.
I like how confident you are that that's what's there.
