We walked through
This normal everyday routine
Called “life”.
But what’s the purpose?

Is it to feel loved and trusted?
Is it to be “popular”?
Is it to love people?

I don’t feel loved or trusted,
I’m not popular or the center of attention,
Nor do I love people.
I let my emotions speak for me.
I feel like I’m just… Existing…

What’s a life if there’s no purpose?
Do I have a purpose in life?
If so, why can’t i find it?

Must I search in the deepest, darkest place?
Or is it right in front of me
Just waiting for me to seek and find it?
Must it find me?

Everywhere I go, I try to find answers
But always end the journey empty handed.
Where can I find answers?
Or where must I go for it to find me?

This piece is an epitaph, or a brief poem or statement about a person's life. Finding my purpose is something I am still going through today, and this is an issue that never really goes away.
