I have lost childhood I have lost pets I have lost friends I have lost love I have lost grandparents I have lost innocence I have lost babies I have lost love I have lost husband I have lost homes I have lost wealth I have lost love I have lost security I have lost aunts I have lost uncles I have lost love I have lost father I have lost sister I have lost son I have lost love I have lost nephew I have lost jobs I have lost cousins I have lost love I have lost faith I have lost popularity I have lost friend I have lost youth I have found...myself.
