I don't know where I'm standing,

I don't know where to go.

I know I must keep trying,

I can't let my confusion show.

But deep down I feel so lost,

And I'm standing on the edge.

I'm hanging on to what should be long forgot,

But I can't get these thoughts out of my head.

The road turns off right over there,

Should I stay or should I go?

Can't see my destination from here,

Or how much longer I'll be alone.

I feel the darkness creeping around me,

This oppressive feeling deep down inside.

I thought I could do this-now I disagree.

The fear is too great, I need to run or hide.

I try to quell the panic.

Close my eyes to ebb the fear.

It weighs in me like a brick,

But I know that the end is near.

All feelings are temporary,

Soon I will be free.

And though I still feel wary,

I know this isn't how things will always be.

So slowly I step forward.

And I pray the path I choose is right.

I don't know what I'm heading towards.

But I know I'll be alright.
