Trilogy of Hope (I)

Confused, lost, detached? What am I to do?
There is no looking back to the past
And the future is darkened by silence
Where do I go and what should I do?

Caught up in thoughts
Strangled by reason
I do not know what to do anymore
My life is slipping through my hands

Teared up on the inside
Smiling on the outside
Will there be an answer?
As I expect and wait, and wait

Saddened by desires
Clouded in limbo
Life walking though the quicksand
Sinking, drowning, dieing in sorrow

Tears flow down
With no apparent comfort to wipe them
No air in a sear of tears
Gasping for breath in a wash of sorrow

Please take my hand and lift me out
Save me from my thoughts
Free me from my pain
Rescue me from myself

Let there be an answer through this all
While the road is filled with pain
Let the destination give me happiness
May and trust and faith fuel me towards the goal

Amen.
