I've spent my life losing myself to love.
Becoming that thing that is desired most.
My own needs and wants buried and forgotten,
Until all that remained was a shadow of my spirit.

It worked well the way things like that do.
When I wanted someone, I had them,
But they never had me, not the real me.
I lost her somewhere along the way.

I forgot what music she liked.
I forgot what made her laugh or cry.
I even forgot what she believed in the most.
I forgot myself in love.

What is it you need dear?
Hold still, be quiet? Am I distracting you?
I did try to follow the recipe, no one else seems to mind.
No, I didn't realize there was another way to fold socks.

I gave it my all, I perfected the routine.
Keeping myself from looking too deeply.
I worked and worked and worked,
Until there was no work left in me.

That's when I stopped, and watched.
I listened in careful observation.
Then my voice was there, whispering.
Strangely my voice came in the form of another.

Speaking softly and surely, calling me out.
That's when I found myself again,
And I found that I wasn't really broken.
I found all the bits of me and gathered them close.

I learned to listen to myself again.
To trust in my intuition.
I learned that I wasn't powerless ,
And I learned to demand my life back.

Then I did it too.
I took it all back.
My life, my love, my self.
I took back my future and my hope.

I find it most interesting that after years of losing myself to love.
This time, for the first time I was able to be found.

Thats neat to hear! :) I'm working on it though, currently on a more "experimental" series for a project of mine - which still is a way to learn more.

In any manner, appreciated. :bow:
