Feeling Lost In Life

It feels like the world is revolving around me,

But not in a good way.


While everyone is living life to the fullest, 

I sit here spectating.


Watching as happiness enriches people's lives

The sight of this warms my heart

Until the curtains close and they all move on


I want to ride the waves, 

Not be a ship lost at sea

I want to look forward to what's next, 

Not regret what is, and what could be. 


I envy the smiles people wear

I deserve that too. 

Don’t I?
