Poetry: The Lost Us by Chad Patrick Osorio



The Lost Us
by Chad Patrick Osorio

You were just a voice
a leftover fig from the garden of Dream
I was dying to try.


A child of the shadows, 
living in the dark beneath the spotlight
afraid to be revealed

yet you are strongest against the light
and so you have no choice but to thrive
hiding behind a thousand watchful eyes.

We are kindred souls playing the same game.

We ventured hand-in-hand
in the forest of the night
armed with hope and questioning minds

but we lost ourselves 
looking for answers,
finding more questions instead.
