Wilderness of the Mind
Disorientated in the world I've known.
Struggling to comprehend what's defined.
Unable to fix my course, I'm alone.
I stumble through my encamped darkness blind.
Encircled by confusion I must stand,
To confront the reasons that find me lost,
And reach for the will my soul shall demand,
To defeat this fluster, to pay its cost.
My depth of will begins to marbleize,
As I dissolve fear of failure away.
Before me a challenge I won't disguise .
The tensile strength of my will on display
Confused in the wilderness of the mind,
To temper the lost soul, to realign
