I've Been Looking
August 11, 2015
I've been looking for
a reason
between unknown faces,
in faraway places.
I feel lost.
I've been looking for
some hope
in abandoned hearts,
their broken shards.
I feel broke.
I've been looking for
life
in a sea of tranquility,
among clouds of anonymity.
I feel numb.
I've been looking for
myself
in verses and hooks,
torn pages of books.
I don't feel.
