I'M Uncertain About the Direction

I'm uncertain about the direction. It's hard to determine, which way I need To go. I know who is going with me, but It's up me to decide. The decision must be precised. I can't afford the roll of the dice. It's a challenge, I can only imagine, It's like sitting on ice. My ideas are There, but frozen in time. Only because I can't make up my mind. I know what I must do, I see it, It's directly in front of me But I can't reach it. It's harder than you think. If it was easy, it would already be done. It bothers me more than you know. I need to be all I can be. Sometimes I don't know if I Can pull it off. There are things that hold me back. It's not easy doing what you must When not being able to afford The things you need. I cry on the inside, you can't see it. It's there, silently through the pain I yell, praying to God for his help. I keep hope close to me. Try in believing that it will Get better, that my dream Of giving my family everything they Need will happen. David Wayne Carter
