Will Being Lost Find Me?

—

I’m lost.

I can smell the fire,
barely see the sky.
The stars shine brighter
with tears in my eyes.

They guide me forward
through the pain,
though the path is unclear.
I can’t see the next step.
I surrender.
I’m here.

I shift from grateful to confused,
from lost to found.
One moment in awe..
life is so beautiful,
the next..
how do I not break down?

Do I sit in sorrow
as lessons replay?
My mind begs control,
my heart whispers: stay.

I remember the times
when life felt more light.
Why does it feel heavy
to stand in this fight?

I’m doing this alone,
yet that was my choice:
to carry the crown,
to honor my voice.

Days turn so heavy,
then gentle, then wild.
I smiled through the pain,
but the forest relooped old miles.

With it all stripped away,
I start anew..
left wandering, confused,
what path to pursue?

Questions remain,
and my mind starts to dance:
You said you wanted it.
This is your chance.

As I try to move forward
toward what I know,
I keep getting pulled backward,
stuck without flow.

I thought I was stronger..
you told me I was.
But now my knees hit the ground,
struggling to ask Him above:

How can I feel so weak
when I’ve carried strength for so long?
How can I hum a melody
without knowing the song?


Will being lost find me?

● About Me

I’m Heather Dyan Morgan, a writer, speaker, and podcast host who left behind everything I knew to start over from scratch.
Literally the definition of wandering the wild mess.

Born and raised in Utah (yes, I grew up Mormon), I walked away from the only life I had ever known—including a good man who simply wasn’t meant for me, and moved to Tennessee with no friends, no family, and no place to call home. I had spent over a decade climbing the corporate ladder, and one day I simply told my boss: “I’m moving. Keep me or don’t.”

A little wild? Maybe. But I’ve always felt like a caged bird waiting to be free.
And once I finally jumped, there was no turning back.

Those early months, bouncing between Airbnbs, navigating heartbreak, identity shifts, and deep solitude, were more than a leap. They were a rebirth.
And somehow, they became the beginning of everything.

Now I share my journey through my podcast (Wandering the Wild Mess), I’m working on an aligned project of digital healing guides, and continue to pour into the written word—because storytelling has always been my way of making sense of the chaos and helping others feel less alone in theirs.

I’ve been writing since I could hold a pencil and asking deep questions since I could form a sentence. I’m endlessly curious about the human experience—how we think, feel, and move through this world. I believe we don’t fail; we just evolve.

I’m here to remind you that it’s okay not to have it all figured out. You’re allowed to grow, grieve, start over, and still be wildly worthy of love and joy.

I enjoy deep conversations, acoustic music, mountain views, and campfire moments that make you feel something. And I believe that if you’re reading this, you’re here for a reason.

Thanks for being part of my wild mess. Let’s wander it together.

And in case no one told you today—you matter
