Lost
This poem looks a lot better in Word format, as it's got interesting spacing and such.
Where am I?
I was just walking along, lost in thought,
The thoughts displaced by others.
A jostling crowd in my mind.
I was doing fine, in the hall,
My books in hand, life is simple.
Then you smiled.
Where am I?
I was just walking along, my eyes on nothing.
My focus nonexistent;
Trying to reach my next class.
I was doing fine, outrunning the bell.
Pens in my pocket, life was simple.
Then I saw you.
Then you smiled.
Where am I?
I was just walking along, nothing’s important;
I’m still limping, thanks to my back,
A flaring pain that can’t match you.
I was doing fine, despite the pain,
It’s only physical, my life was so simple.
My eyes rose.
Then I saw you.
Then you smiled.
Where am I?
I was just walking along, perhaps thinking of you.
Then, like magic, you appear.
And memory hits as a storm.
I was doing fine, and here you are
And guess what’s up now; life’s not so simple.
My eyes rose.
Then I saw you.
Memories flooded in.
Then you smiled.
Where am I?
I was just walking along, as you now smile;
The whole world is aglow,
Everything is seeming okay.
I was doing fine, doing better now,
But let me tell you, life is now complex.
My eyes rose.
Then I saw you.
Memories flooded in.
Then you smiled.
Worlds brightened.
Where am I?
I was just walking along; new pain besets me,
Not a knife twisting my heart,
But a steel band crushing my lungs.
I was doing fine, not so hot now,
Mostly due to: life is so complex.
My eyes rose.
Then I saw you.
Memories flooded in.
Then you smiled.
Worlds brightened.
Then exploded.
Where am I?
I was just walking along, now lost in your eyes,
My strongest feeling,
Buffeting me in its raw strength.
I was doing fine, then I made an error.
This is the mistake that makes life so complex.
I was lost.
My eyes rose.
Then I saw you.
Memories flooded in.
Then you smiled.
Worlds brightened.
Then exploded.
Where am I?
I was just walking along, still with heart shattered.
And I ask myself once more,
Why I love you so.
I was doing fine, and I guess here I am,
Looking at my love. Life is so hard.
I was lost.
My eyes rose.
Then I saw you.
Memories flooded in.
Then you smiled.
I was found.
Worlds brightened.
Then exploded.
Where am I?
I was just walking along, no longer in a hall;
But lost in your smile.
I wander through this labyrinth.
I was doing fine; back in the real world.
Now I’ve lost it; life is so complicated.
I was lost.
My eyes rose.
Then I saw you.
Memories flooded in.
Then you smiled.
I was found.
Worlds brightened.
Then exploded.
My heart is lost.
Where am I?
I was just walking along, feeling pretty depressed.
I know there’s no point anymore,
My love will die with me unanswered.
I was doing fine; as I hope you are now.
I’m not important. Life is not important.
I was lost.
My eyes rose.
Then I saw you.
Memories flooded in.
Then you smiled.
I was found.
Worlds brightened.
Then exploded.
My heart is lost.
Where am I?
It doesn’t matter.
I was just walking along, now I smile back.
You are so much more important than me;
Because it’s you whom I love.
I was doing fine, now more bitter, but better.
I know I love you. Life is simple once more.
I was lost.
My eyes rose.
Then I saw you.
Memories flooded in.
Then you smiled.
I was found.
Worlds brightened.
Then exploded.
My heart is lost.
Where am I?
It doesn’t matter.
It really doesn’t.
Where am I?
It really doesn’t matter.
Because I love you.
