You know,

I kinda feel like

A boat lost at sea,

The waves push me around,

No limits,

But I don’t feel free.

Drifting like

A boat lost at sea,

No one else around…

Just dark thoughts

And me.

I feel…

Detached,

To say the least…

Floating,

Drifting,

Existing without a purpose.

Untethered,

Alone,

Stuck without an anchor

To hold me down,

To hold me tight…

To keep me from…

Drifting…

I’m drifting,

Detached

In more ways than one…

Emotionally…

Spiritually…

Physically…

Ceaseless

Drifting,

Like

A boat lost at sea,

I can’t connect with you,

And certainly not

With me.

Drifting

Away

From my sense of self,

Day by day,

I drift farther away.

Loneliness

Is the waves

That thrash and

Destroy me.

Emptiness

Is the wind

That pushes me

Around.

Drifting away

From friends

And from family…

Drifting away

From myself.

Who am I?

I’m…

A boat lost at sea.

Drifting…

Drifting…

Drifting…
