Adrift

Lost and alone; confusion reigns.

Is this my life or is it simply just a passing phase?

Disorientated; which way do I turn, the question still remains.

Drained; I’m walking through life with my mind in a constant daze!

Eyes turned skyward but there’s nothing there for me to see.

Perhaps it’s the stillness of the sky that forces me to gaze.

No sun, not a stray cloud in sight; it’s all such a haze.

Is this my life or am I an actor in in this play �" purely in disguise?

I scream out loud at the top of my voice; the voices within resounding.

I scream and shout, rant and rave - hoping!

No one seems to hear my cries; or is it that they too are inwardly moping.

Forward, no matter the effort �" this is my dare!

To follow the path that leads homeward; I must be vigilant and take care.

Is this my life or will I forever remain imprisoned in this maze?
