Innocence Lost - a poem

INNOCENCE LOST

Tormented by this nagging feeling
Of not knowing who I am,
I sit in solitude pondering
Where I've been and where I'm going.
I wonder what I've learned
From my mistakes, from the world I live in.
Am I stronger from the terrors I've faced
Or have they broken me?

Most, if not all of the poetry I post was written at least a few years ago.  If there's one thing that medications seem to take away it's creative thought.  It's not that I can't write...I just lack the inspiration.  It's much easier to write a poem about things you are experiencing but are afraid to express, than to write about what you used to feel.
