Can't find my words

 

There has to be a piece of me 
Somewhere, anywhere
I can't seem to find it. 
Slowly turning is everything around me
I can't seem to find my balance.
Think to myself
Is this hell?
No it can't be 
There are worse off than me.
But why
Tell me why
I can't open my mind 
And find some sort of balance.
Hurt, and pain, engulfed in flames
Hidden by my smile
I tell myself it's all alright
But then I can't find my words for a while
Tell me
Tell me 
Can this be real
This feeling I don't want to feel
It's not me
It can't be
Where is the person I once knew as Natalie.
