Lost

I’m standing

At a crossover

Feeling lost

Confused

I feel vulnerable

Nearly paranoid

I ask myself

Of what I’ve been missing

I realized

I left my faith behind

With each step

That I took forward

Thinking I was

Getting closer to being modern

I stripped away

A bit of myself

I’m an old soul

Raised with timeless values

I was wrong

To leave my spirit behind

I forgot my smile

I missed my laugh

Do I walk back?

To the past

To get what

I had lost

What I had forgotten

All that I missed?

Or do I walk forward

Hoping

To replace them all?

Cross roads

Confused.

Lost.

I close my eyes

Pray to My Lord

Help me choose

So I can be happy

I can be brave

To smile as i did

Even brighter

To laugh like I did

Only truer

To be me

Only better

And as I choose

You make a choice too.
