Uncertainty

I don’t know if I’m ok
Do I handle life alright?
I ask myself, everyday 
If I’m a useless blight?

There was no book
Or gentle hand
To guide me through the dark
Yet judging eyes and tall demands 
Weigh heavy on my heart

On my knees, at night, I pray
For God to help and light my way
Despite my pleas and bleeding knees
In the dark, I’ll stay

All I can say about this one is just be true to yourself. A wise person always understands their limitations. It is YOUR life, therefore you can live it anyway YOU want. To hell with what others think.
