Writer's Workshop - Lost

Write a post inspired by the word: lost

Lost

He got lost

In her eyes

When he was just six years old.

And it took him 20 years

To find his way back.

Over the years

As their friendship grew,

He would find himself

Lost in her smile.

They would spend hours on the phone

Talking about nothing important.

And he would find himself

Lost in her voice.

But as they grew

Their lives took them on different paths

And now he would find himself

Lost without her.

College, marriage and children

His life went on

But he knew something was missing

He was lost.

Then one day

He found her

And he knew what he had lost.

It was not the minutes, hours

Days, weeks or years

It was his heart and soul.

He was just six years old

When he lost his heart to this little girl

And though he’s found her

His heart still belongs to her.

But at least he’s not lost 

Anymore.
