To Lose

To lose,
To cease to have.

When something is lost
Your only options
are to go without
Or to find.

So to lose yourself
Is to find yourself
Or to go without.

Whether in darkness
Or delight.

To lose,
To be enabled to find.

I had read another poem that said everything you lose is not bound to be a loss. Also, when I was in a really spot, my friend told me that that only meant I could find myself again. Whenever you lose something, you can find it.
