Regret Who You Are

I too often regret who I am.
My past I would change,
so many directions I could rearrange.

I was brought up to freedom.
Encouraged to think.
"Question everything" they said, but it threw my life out of sync.

This is what I believe,
I grew up with that in mind.
Only to look back and find out that it's the reason I'm so blind.

Now I ask people for help.
What do most of them say?
"Only you know yourself, so go find your own way."

With that in mind,
I only have one true friend.
As for the rest, I really can't depend.

So is there hope,
and do I continue to wait?
Or do I continue to mope,
and leave the rest to fate.

I am often confused.
In reality, I don't know.
It just always seems like my life has been cursed with no flow.
