Back On Track Poem by Natalie Congniality

Lately I feel so empty
Like an empty shell
I'm just not myself
And it's not hard to tell

I'm trying to get through each day
One day at a time
I feel like I'm waiting
Someone just give me a sign

Because I don't know what I'm waiting for
And I feel I've lost my path
I try to do things right
But man I feel so daft

I can feel myself changing
Into someone I don't want to be
But how do I stop,
When I love feeling so free?

A baby should be enough
To put these thoughts outta my head
What happens when things get worse?
I'll probably end up dead

Is this really who I am?
Or is it a figment of my imagination?
I never thought I'd be like this
I've lost my motivation

The one with all the will-power
Whose strong but not outspoken
The one who doesn't care
Is now crumpled and broken

And it's not really helping
That I feel so alone
Even when I'm with people
I'm in my own zone

I'm taking one step forward
Then two steps back
I need to find my place
And get my life back on track
