Life's Companionship

I've lost myself

though I've found myself

lost in brown skin

brown eyes

joyful laughter

life's realities

I've lost myself

while I've found myself 

touched through the anguish of 

being taken for granted by so many

yet truly appreciated by so few

made triumphant again and again by life's debtors

Giving value and understanding to being used

I've lost myself 

to your growth and understanding

lost myself to the options that you choose

and though I know that now loss leaves confusion

I know that deception has been refused

I know that because I found myself

You can find what you are seeking

Because I've found myself, you're love is truth

I own what's sought through life that I am speaking 

Foundation is in knowledge and wisdom learned from lacking in my youth.

In feeling that you've lost yourself

You've only been rebuilt to offer new 

Love yourself loving others

Give to life to find what's true

Lose yourself in life's joyful wonders

For there are many, we often experience so few

Lose yourself, see life's precious colors

You'll be surprised at those who find themselves in you.
