Lost Cause

In too deep
Can you catch me
Gone too far
Can you stop me
I'm lost
Can you find me

I cried
And I moaned
And I yelled
Kicked
and screamed
Wish it was all a dream

My shades
- Feel nothing. See nothing. Hear nothing.
Hide behind the shield on my eyes
Wear a disguise

Can't get lost in the crowd
Cause I stand out
Like a kidney bean
In a pan full of limas

Walking around
Unconscious, blind
I sleepwalk with my eyes open
My mind closed
Self-control
Is easier said than done
Love when I run

Round that three mile trail
Trying to escape Hell
Fire's licking at my heels
Can't conceal how I feel

Living life ain't easy
When I would do good
When I would think good
When I would say good
Evil is always present with me
Lord touch me
Mentally, spiritually and emotionally
Cause I'm lost at sea
Shore's too far away to swim
Lord don't let me be
Come and rescue me

good writing

The strength in you is how you handle things.

YOU CAN RUN,BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE. I'm glad you are asking the Lord for help.:))))) Hang in there and use your inner strength

Thanks Barb for the encouragement

I've noticed that I'm starting to share my problems a lot more as I age. Writing seems to bring it out. Suppressing it does no good.

Flow

You have amazing flow with your words. This was great.

Thanks again William

Poetry is a great outlet for me to get out what needs to come out so that I can exhale.
