Lost..

I am lost,
Not to be found.
Lost in the woods,
Without any life, they say,
Last in the woods,
To have found some, I add.
I am lost,
I hear my own voice,
Through the waters of life,
Within my heart,
From the earth,
From the coffins.
I feel my own touch,
Yours
Supplanting mine,
Suffocating mine.
I see my own self,
Up there,
Above the buildings
Taller than the pines,
Over the moon
Amongst the stars,
Bright and Blue;
Down here,
Between thy toes,
Beneath your foot,
Bare and Bruised.
I think my own thoughts,
Bemused by every single one of it,
Cutting across yours,
Hurting you.
Of your half truths and
Whole lies,
Which one do I take?
To become a lesser hypocrite;
Not sure,
Of either this or that,
Not sure,
Of either me or you;
Not bothered,
Neither you, Nor I.
Not bothered,
To reason it why,
I am honest,
I am lost,
Not to be found.

I want neither half truths nor whole lies. Give me the truth, all the truth, and nothing but the truth. The truth as I see it, the truth as it is. I refuse to take anything else, it is all hypocrisy, in whatever percentage.
You may see me with the stars, you may see me at your height, on par with you, you may encroach my space, stamp me, bruise me. But you do not, in doing any of these things, elevate me or injure me, without my consent.
What you see of me does not alter me in any way.
So, you see, I am not lost. I am where I am, I am who I am. The ones who are lost, are lost, because they do not know who they are.
Never mind,come back again,if u have the time and patience.
