Don’t Understand

Can’t figure out
Don’t understand
My place in the universe
Who’s here to tell me
Who will direct my path
Just where do I stand?

Answers don’t come easily
No matter how many times
I ask
Don’t understand.

Trouble Is I Haven’t Seen The Light

Trouble is I haven’t seen the light
Radiating thru the darkness
Thru the night.

No one
Calls my name
No one holds my hand.

Alone in the quandary
Where oh where
Do I stand.
