All alone I’m left to be
A wondering sheep in the field
Left and right I look to see
If someone is coming to search for me
I cry out to find the other flock of sheep
But they are all in their sweet tender sleep
Foolishly forgotten that one of them is lost
In the wilderness where the lions boast.
In the caves I hide for danger lurks here
While my GOD given wool keeps me warm; I still fear
I then think how selfish the other sheep could be
To forsake and cast me away for I can see
I can see the flock and how lost it is
I bleat out “DIRECTION”; and I’m like an unpleasant disease.
But though now I’m alone in the wilderness
I still hope to be heard
Not by the lost sheep in a mess
But by the ONE and ONLY TRUE SHEPHERD.
And in the midst of lions I will wait
For HE always saves the ones with true faith.
***part three of three***
All I see is darkness
as I lay on the cold concrete
clothes shredded
no shoes are on my feet
there is a faint light
coming from underneath the door
every now and then
a shadow passes
then it leaves once more
I do not know how long I've been here
I've well past lost count
but, I do remember why I'm here
and what all of this is about
Just then as I sat there pondering
going over my misdeeds
the door opens with a blinding light
thank the lord I think I'm free
no longer will I be a citizen
free to roam outside these walls
my only freedom comes at certain times
when I clean the bathroom stalls
I've lost everything that I hold dear
my freedom stripped in early life
my son has a new father
It's my best friend that's with my wife!!!

As I was walking along the beach,
With a song in my heart and void of despair,
I spied a lighthouse that seemed in reach;
And decided to walk all the way there.
Along the way I met a child,
And wondered what the matter could be?
He was sitting alone and crying out loud;
Then I noticed, that little boy was me.
“You are close to your lighthouse”, he said
“And have left me far behind.
The innocence and joy you had when you were me
Have long ago left your mind.”
“Then walk with me, boy, the rest of the way;
I would love your company.
We can reminisce about the olden days
And you can once again become part of me.”
As we travelled on, we met a young man,
Who looked lost and was wandering around;
We recognized that, again, he was I
He said, “I’m glad that me you have found.”
“Do you remember how lost we were,
When adulthood we first met?
It was before you gained your confidence
And hadn’t achieved success yet?”
“I have forgotten those long ago days
But join us and refresh my mind.
Before we reach that distant lighthouse
I think it important these memories I find.”
Just before we reached the lighthouse
There was a man old and gray
I realized that he was a reflection of me
Exactly the way I looked that day.
“I’m glad you stopped and gathered our friends
Before the lighthouse we did reach;
You know that this represents our end
And now we must leave the beach?”
“Yes, thank you for waiting on us
I should never have left them alone
But now we are back together
So the lighthouse can become our home.”
The Mountain withstands time the Agent Elder who once spewed an earthly inferno
Now rests quietly in peace. I climb higher holding onto tree branches covered in moss In a
rainforest where time is lost I breathe in the early morning dew that smells like cotton
candy and the Evergreens of a sugary Maple. Houdini escaped the chains of monotony, and I
did too. I was a prisoner in the confines of Whitby Plain suburbia nightmare. Cookie
cutter homes and the middle class daily life.
I wouldn’t fit in next to a water looking down on everyone else. I almost lost my edge… a
shadow version of myself. My Light My confidence to shout out and sing had almost gone out
Peering down into the Glacier lake. On top of my mountainous escape into the looking glass
surface I am overjoyed and see the sadness of my trapped heart dissipate
