Lost

his initiative is marked

on a canvas of sand

deep within the valleys

of her desert;

uncultivated in his strength

to be a companion;

he becomes a man

misplaced in what he has

been conditioned to feel;

his purpose has vanished

in a mission of conquests;

his resolve is buried

under a desire to be

as “his boyz” swagger him

religiously;

unsophisticated with his steps

towards a mate his soul

secretly eludes;

he has no clue

of his worth;

he’s lost.
