I FOUND MYSELF TODAY

I found myself today climbing a HUNDRED stairs

Battling countless feelings of hopelessness and despair

To reach the top I must conquer me

And be and feel and see what no other see

I found myself today playing a THOUSAND roles

Each new one opening and widening existing holes

I fear my soul is being diminished

Prematurely before my purpose and goals are finished

I found myself today with knowledge of TEN THOUSAND on my mind

And searching desperately for answers no other is trying to find,

In this constant search for knowledge which is power

And venturing to places that would make mere minds cower

I found myself today wearing a MILLION masks

One for each person and each insignificant task

If found myself today trying desperately not to fall

Is it me? I'm not sure it's me at all
