I find myself in the eyes of others,

staring through me, preserving each moment.

I find myself when I’m alone,

reflecting on who I am and what I wish to become.

I find myself when I am lost,

and later find in what I had been searching for.

I find myself at night,

when silence overcomes the sleeping world.

I find myself in times of need,

knowing wellness is just around the corner.

I find myself being careless,

and not worrying about the next chapter.

I find myself through laughter,

and all the hysterical causes for it.

I find myself growing older,

yet wanting to stay forever youthful.

I find myself when I make mistakes,

and use them as lessons later on.

I find myself with the waking of each day,

and reminding myself that the best has yet to come.

I find myself in summer,

sensing the warmth of the beating sun.

I find myself in music,

by allowing time to pass into sound.

I find myself with friends,

and the inner person they bring out in me.

I find myself through the days that pass,

knowing that I will never get them back.
