What Happened To My Future

This can not be why I'm here My future used to look so clear With high hopes of happiness Somehow these high hopes are less Than I planned so long ago Where did my bright future go There is no more clarity Fogginess is all I see Trying hard to get it straight All I ever do is wait For a sign to come along Right will take away the wrong I'm this hill I'm now struggling To climb over but it's tugging Me back down with every step Its difficult to find the pep Inside myself, its slowly fading Clouds are full and darkly shading Any light I seem to find I'm about to lose my mind If this path I have to walk Keeps stabbing me like a fork Leaving little holes in me Pouring out the misery Playing like a sad sad tune Praying happy music soon Will engulf me with protection And dance me in a new direction

Hi Robin. It is awful hard to see sometimes why we must go through things in our life. I'm sorry that your are struggling and appear to feel lost at this time. Our life is full of lessons and God will hear us if we ask for his direction. Bless you my friend.... Robert.

You painted a bleak picture, and I know this is not really you! I envision you as a very happy person. Am I right? Anyway, great poem, sweetie.
