100+ Poems for Gabrielle ~ Vol. 1

Lost Along the way

I had a map once, drawn clear and bright,
A path to follow in the fading light.
But somewhere between the steps I knew,
And the dreams I chased, I lost the view.

The road became twisted, the signs unclear,
And suddenly, all that I held dear
Felt distant, faded, like whispers in the wind,
As I wandered through the unknown, without and within.

I thought I knew where this journey would lead,
But now I stumble, uncertain of need.
Lost along the way, in the space between,
The person I was and who I've yet to be seen.

The compass spins, and the stars seem far,
I search for direction, under a sky without star.
Yet in the stillness, something soft calls my name,
A quiet reminder, a spark in the flame.

For sometimes being lost is part of the plan,
To find the truth in the depths of the man.
In losing the way, I've come to see,
The road less traveled may set me free.

So I'll keep walking, though the path is unknown,
With faith in my heart that I'm never alone.
For even when lost, there's still hope in the fray,
And perhaps being lost is just finding my way.
