Skillfull Saturday: Poetry

Normally this would be the day I share a video of myself performing some skill. However my camera on my computer isn't working, and I didn't get any suggestions. But this was the perfect opportunity to try a different skill. One of my housemates suggested writing a poem. This is what I came up with:

Lost

Alone with nothing to cling to

What is this life I live?

I’ve tried to keep my head up

Still I find myself lost

Years of school and nothing to show

No clue what I’m doing

Searching for what I want in life

Still I find myself lost

Why am I so apathetic?

Daily joys have run away

Routine to distract my tired soul

Still I find myself lost

Why should I get out of my bed?

I’d rather slip away

Yet I wake eager for some hope

Still I find myself lost

Which reigns supreme, logic or dreams?

Settling for safe bets

Giving up and choosing plain life

Still I find myself lost

I hope you enjoyed the poem. Maybe some of you can read this and know that you are no alone. This is the end of my first week blogging and I will return again on Monday. If you have any suggestions for a skill for next week or if you want my opinion on any music, tv show, or movie, just let me know. Peace.
