Lost Myself

In this complicating cobweb
Caught between the trap of helplessness
An unknown rage is boiling
A different character within, is evolving

The puzzle seems to be easy no more
The glimpse of joy, existing no more
Crawling between the narrow ends
Escape seems to be possible no more

Am I trying to console myself?
Am I trying to hurt myself?
Is this insanity?
Why isn't anything in the sight of clarity?

Inumerable parts of me
Conquering the exterior of me
It's like a coating, an outer-shell
Am I ever going to be let free?

With folks I'm someone
With others a different somebody
It's my loss of individuality
I ask again, is this insanity?

Where am I?
Nowhere.
I have lost myself.
Within myself.
