Something Wrong

Was

Running away from everyone in hopes of helping myself
Now lookin around, I've no one, so instead I've hurt myself
To become a diamond, a rock must endure the fire
So how could I have expected better
when I refused to go through the weather?
Family & friends now lost in hopes of emotional wealth
But perhaps I should have realized my error when I began to lose myself
Confused - my spiritual well-being now more derranged
Lonely and afraid, I no longer force my own corrections, but sit and wait for change...
