Lost

Gone missing in action,

without a trace,

my past self,

without a face,

without eyes,

or ears to hear,

only carrying memories,

of the year.

Yet I'm looking around,

to show myself,

just how much I'll grow,

I won't age on a on a permanent time shelf.

Always cautious but fearful,

smart and yet foolish,

doing nothing but worry,

treating life like an empty dish.

Yet today,

that lost self is gone out the door,

though it's right here with me,

It's who I'm going to show off for.
