In this present circumstance,
Where a choice must arise,
There is an enormous area,
Situated perfectly...to confuse...
It is too wide...I could just glide.

But, I hear murmurs of apprehension,
A path so dim and unclear, it causes deflection...

How do I deal with indecision?

It looks simple, like an easy way out,
Yet, I could not get through...
A quiver says, I musn't get through...
If I dare start my steps,
What would I find straight ahead?
Would I be smiling, in peace?
Would there be peace, yet, I, in pain?
If I turn to my right,
Would that be an act of propriety?
Would I be smiling in peace?
Would others be smiling, like me?
Or would they be in tears?
If I go left, will I be
******?
Cursed to perdition?
Would I still be smiling in peace?
Would I be the only one smiling?
Would I be kneeling down, lower?

Life used to be simple, without complications.
My mind, right now, is traveling through dark avenues,
And...there is only YOU, I can turn to.
Please.....I'm not that  bad,
I need your touch upon my head, your strength, to enlighten me
Grant that I may know...and accept the wisdom of pain,
Make me see the joy, derived from pain....

Take my hand, Lord,
Lead me away from these

I don't want to get lost...
