Lost

Circled by shadow for so long
The fear of what is right or wrong
Resentment bred by giving oh the cost
I am here
I am not here
I am lost
Angered by the love the pain I cannot hide
The house I labored to build cannot find
A touch so strong the strength that once was
Is it here
It is not here
It is lost
Flicker flame as I rest my head
Held in the clutches of regret
I go to trance
In the candle red
With every breath and step the search goes on
With every day I discover I am torn
Did love lie beside me once?
And is it here
It is not here
It is lost
