Lost

I think of you and I know I lost my way 
When you led me from the night into the bright of day. 
Because like a caged animal released into the wild, 
With the unmapped brain of an infant child, 
I don’t know what to do now I’m out in the light. 
I look around me and I am filled with fright. 
The shadows that veiled me kept me safe and secure. 
But I didn’t know better, so I wanted nothing more. 
Then you coaxed me from my den with the promise of love. 
I believed in you readily – what was I thinking of? 
My naiveté was strong; it fills me with shame. 
I hate everything you’ve done but I’m the one to blame. 
I let you lead me from darkness, then leave me all alone, 
When I knew I wasn't the type to make it on my own. 
Now I’m out in this world, and I don’t know what to do. 
I lost my way completely when I lost my self to you.
