I Am

I am lost and alone
I wonder if things could have been different
I hear my parents arguing
I see them coming apart
I want to love and be loved
I am lost and alone

I pretend we are still a loving family
I feel that fantasy slipping away
I touch reality and see the truth
I worry I will suffer the same fate
I cry when things fall apart
I am lost and alone

I understand I am still very young
I say I have my whole life to find happiness
I dream of how wonderful my future will be
I try to remember I control my own destiny
I hope to remain in control
I am lost and alone
