Lost and Found

Reminiscing on the last decade of my life and changing view of self

---------------------------------------------------

Socially awkward

...yet a silent warrior

Submerged in societal cacophony.

But the warrior in me,

Lit the city and everything that surrounded me.

Socially relevant

                          ... was I found?

Confidence teased societal music

The warrior in me,

Sought validation by the ego that consumed me.

Socially shut

                         …and a silent spectator

Overpowered by societal silence.

Muted warrior, when will you rise?

Find yourself first then realize.
