Return To Myself

by Samantha Lowe - Scorpio

I seemed to have lost something this past year
Something that I thought you could never ever lose
Yet I seemed to have died
Among the flames of my past
As though everything had just been sucked right out

I let everything go
Just go and get the best of me
There was no way of holding back
Yet was there?
Maybe I just thought that I wouldn't have been one of the ones
To lose myself
For that's what has happened
Hasn't it?

Sometimes I just have to laugh
You know?
I've been going through my days
Thinking that I was somebody I wasn't
Passing myself off as someone you would want
Yet I wasn't me
I never was
I was who you wanted me to be

So now I lay naked
Bare
Everything revealed
And I guess now the question is...
Do you still want me?
Or maybe
Just maybe it's not even that
But
Are you even seeing me at all?

Reason for writing:

    I haven't posted anything on here for a while. Nobody probably even noticed but I figured I'd return to the site. I guess you can kinda say I missed cyberpages :)
