Lost

What is the meaning of being lost? Is it wandering through endless corridors of the mind, Where every turn leads to another question, another doubt? How can we get lost when we are happy? Isn't happiness the anchor, the light that guides us home? Yet, even in joy, we can drift, unmoored, As if happiness itself is a fleeting shadow, A mirage that vanishes the closer we get. Lost is so much more than just a feeling; it is an experience. It's a descent into the unknown, where time loses its grip, And you float, suspended in the vastness of uncertainty. It's scary, this floating in nothingness, Where the familiar becomes foreign, and the self becomes a stranger. It is being sad, yet at the same time, feeling nothing, A hollow ache that echoes in the chambers of your heart, But yet, paradoxically, it can be beautiful. Beautiful? Yes, beautiful. For in being lost, we are stripped of the illusions that bind us, We shed the layers that we thought defined us, Until all that remains is the raw essence of who we are. In the void, we find a quiet space where the soul breathes, Where the noise of the world fades, and we listen to the whispers within. When we are lost, we are on the edge of discovery, For one day, we know we will be truly found. How can you be truly yourself if you have never once lost yourself? How can you be whole if you've never felt the fractures? How can you be happy without sadness to measure it against? To be lost is to wander through the landscapes of the soul, To stumble upon the hidden corners of your being, To confront the shadows and embrace the light that breaks through. In losing ourselves, we find the path back to our truest selves, And in that return, we are no longer the same, We are reborn, renewed, and ready to face the world once more. For the beauty of being lost is not in the losing, But in the profound act of being found.

Heartbreak Heartbreak is often seen in a negative light, as something that only hurts and scars you. People lose themselves after heartbreak, they start questioning themselves, the love they so long believed in, was it all even true, how could this have happend? Heartbreak is painful, there is no question of that. It tears open the heart and soul, and you start to lose grip on what you though to be true. Yet, heartbreak is also positive. How can you truly be yourself, if you have never once lost yourself? How do you know where you begin and end, if you've never reached those boundries? How do you know you, if you've never questioned you? For people to truly change, deep within their hearts and souls, they must first be able to reach those places, to even dream of new a goal. To improve and rebuild, you must first tear something down. As you cannot build anew, in a place that already holds a town. Buildings of you stand strong and tall, and their walls solid like rock. You can't pass through, these walls of you. To cast a new road to your goal, you must first tear down a piece of your soul. Heartbreak is only a tool, allowing you to become more true. (edited)

What is peace? A soft-spoken wish, a sigh in the night, A dream we cradle but seldom hold tight.

To throw it all away, to sever the ties,
To leave all the pain, beneath endless skies.”
