The Way of a Nightmare

i
tried to search
a meaning
for life
when
i didn't care
find
myself.
a
sojourn
without direction
a direction
without bearing
in countless walks
in endless circles,
picking
up the pieces
along the way
but never
patching them up
just collecting
nodding
existing
knowing
i've failed...

Bryan:
This is an interesting poem; somehow the poem is very effective a personal expression but doesn't transcend and become universal. Try rewriting it a bit.
