I am lost again. Truly! I have been here before, Therefore I must be going in a circle! Then I said, "Go forth!" Only to stay. Once more I say, "Go forth!" Again, only to stay. Fear. It keeps me stagnant. There is no growth, Much less development. My voice presents me as a pacifist, But my heart is a fury! I am but one of many lost, In need of saving, One who requires guidance, instructions, indications... Perhaps a sort of map if you will. The Stars point me to the North, But my dazed and confused heart says, "Stay right where you are" And a voice within that seems to say, "For you are not lost, but only walking blindly."
