The Direction of My Life

I haven't got a clue what direction my life's heading 
lately it's gotten pretty bad
It's so bad I've gotten in uncontrollable and depressing moods
There's many factors having to do with these horrible moods of mine
I began a degree that's not finished
I have been out of work for far too long now
Our money's going down the drain more and more
So many factors racking my brain trying to reach a idea that's not so bad
for me to be alright anymore 
We gotta get things back in order
I will soon lose it if not
it's gotten so old I can't handle it anymore
soon we'll be in right direction when the boot we're in gets turned back around
When all this goes just right it'll be on the right track once again
It's the right track all along

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
