Pivotal Times

Pivotal Times Pivotal times Are trying times Is the worst yet to come? I feel alone I want to escape I need that special one. Through the doors I run into This passage won’t let me through. I want to lead Yet tend to follow I need to be made new. Colliding thoughts Lie within Confusion clouds my brain. If I should stumble Suppose I do fall What will be my gain? Guidance I need To overcome Perplexed in this confounded state. Where do I go When will I get there How long will I have to wait? Defeated I am overcome Yet I was free to choose. Now overwhelmed Unsure where to go Cause in the end I chose to lose. I chase destruction The road to my ruin It all lies within my demise. All for nothing Toiling in distress If only I wouldn’t have lived for lies. Lost forever Misplaced alone Or simply gone astray? Courage is searching Yet fear has found me I will find myself someday.
