Who I need to be....

Why do I have these thoughts?

Why am I not happy?

I struggle each day to make it my own

When all I can think is where did I go?

I disappeared each day as we changed.

Who am I?

I look in the mirror at someone less than me.

Where did I go?

The small faces I raise I see myself

But where am I inside me?

I lost my feeling of where I should be?

I have these feelings and thoughts each day.

Heavier and heavier my heart does weigh.

Release my soul allow me to be the person I know I am.

I want to feel the life I have and enjoy the life I lead.

Where did I go and where do I look to find the person I used to be?

I cry a few tears here and there,

I can not find myself anywhere.

I thought forgetting who I was, WAS the way but lost I am each and every day.

Help me find the person I am.

Laughter I crave, sadness I shun.

Please oh please help me see the rising sun.

Despair is all you bring to me.

Dear God please help me see.

The person I need to be is hard, when the person I used to be is who I crave.

I crave the laughter and no worries.

When I speak of the past they just become stories.

Stories you tell to your new friends so they can understand the person you are, and maybe help you see the person inside you need to be.

tswieberg I think we all forget who we are from time to time and being a mother really makes it easy to lose yourself when you have all of your time wrapped up in raising the little ones and no time for yourself. The poem is amazing and written very well. Keep writing, you will find yourself!!
