I am Arrow Arrow is me and I am lost.
Lost in grief, buried in worry, pricked with agony, slammed with decision, coaxed by deception, sparked by passion, and difficult by nature. So say once again
"Where am I?"

An interesting post, dear Arrow. I rather like it. It describes the pressurs of mankind in a lighter way. Was there an event that sparked you to write such a thing? You always seem like such a happy person, always laughing and with a joke to share. But things happene to all of us. Either way, I liked it. Continue the good work! -Rachelle41

It sounds nice. I like the questioning of ones-self. The title might be better if it was called 'Where Am I' and instead of calling yourself Arrow, just say 'I'. The first stanza could be changed to 'I am myself, every part of myself is me, and every part of me is lost'. You could add another stanza between 'I am Arrow' and 'Lost in grief'. Highlight the 'every part of me is lost' section. For example: I am myself Every part of myself is me Every part of me is lost
Every inch of my soul blows in the wind A dry, hot wind that sets my soul a-thirst That sets my soul a-flame That causes only greater misery Greater confusion in myself I call through the dusty wind 'Where am I?'

Hope you don't mind that I said all that, but I thought you could use some length. I love you!
