"Lost" a Poem

"Lost"

Sitting still in the corner of my mind

Trying to find my way home

Looking and hoping, praying for something

I look around and I'm all alone

Stepping back while I'm squinting, listening for something

Do I hear a thought out in the world?

A murmur, a whisper, a gagged truthful answer

Pursue or will I give up now?

Faintly, consistently, it keeps or ringing

I'm a blind man inside a cold room

Feeling its presence, unaware, it's a present

I turn away from the warmth of a fire

Lost on a lake, in a boat with no paddle

I feel a warm hand on my shoulder

Should I turn now or get lost in the burn?

Do I really want to find my way home?

"Dancing" a Poem

"Dancing"

They're all dancing, dancing in a circle

Round and round me they keep going

With scarves and glitter all abound

Round and round me they keep going

Unrolling paper of gold, such beauty

Round and round me the keep going

Around my feet with gold they're wrapping

Round and round me they keep going

Singing and dancing elated motions

Round and round me they keep going 

Wrapped to my knees, wrapped tight in gold

Round and round they keep on going

Up to my waist in shimmering gold

Round and round they keep on going

My hands now tied, down to my sides

Round and round they keep on going

Terrified, yet still alive

Round and round they keep on going

To my shoulders wrapped in that gold

Round and round they keep on going

My head now wrapped I cannot breathe

Round and round they keep on going

I hear laughing, dancing, but blind

Round and round they keep on going

So I fall limp unto the ground 

One by one they leave not knowing
