The Diary of a Lost Child

In the depths of my soul, a cry echoes through time
A whisper of memories, a heart that's lost its rhyme
I wander alone, in a world that's cold and grey
A fragile leaf blown away, without a place to stay

My eyes once shone bright, like stars in the night
But now they're dimmed, by tears that won't cease to fight
I search for a hand, to guide me through the pain
But find only shadows, that whisper my name in vain

I remember laughter, and joy that was true
But now it's just a memory, a bittersweet hue
I long to be held, in arms that are strong and warm
But find only emptiness, a chill that disarms

My heart beats with sorrow, my soul is on fire
I'm lost in a world, that's full of desire
I yearn for a home, where love will be the key
But find only darkness, that's all I see

I try to be brave, to face each new day
But the weight of my heart, makes it hard to find my way
I'm a leaf on a river, drifting away from the shore
A fragile, forgotten thing, that nobody wants anymore

Oh, for a gentle touch, a loving embrace
To soothe this aching heart, and fill this empty space
But it's just a dream, a fantasy that fades
Leaving me with nothing, but tears and shades

I'm a lost child, in a world that's vast and wide
A small, forgotten soul, that's struggling to survive
I reach out for help, but find only silence and pain
A heart that's breaking, a soul that's lost in the rain

My diary, my friend, my confidant, my guide
You see the depths of my sorrow, the tears that I've cried
You know the pain I endure, the heartache I face
A lost child, in a world that's full of empty space

Oh, diary, dear diary, how I wish to be found
To be loved, to be held, to be safe and sound
But until that day comes, I'll write down my tears
And hope that someday, someone will wipe away my fears

I'll keep writing, through the darkness and the pain
And hope that someday, I'll find my way back home again
To a place where love will heal, this heart that's lost its way
And I'll find my place in the world, come what may.

Hope it serves
Thanks for reading.
