Lost

No, not that crazy ass show...it's a poem.

Walking down this dark alleyway,
Going home,
Or someplace new,
I can’t remember.

I’m thinking,
Soul searching,
Looking for answers,
No one said life would be so hard.

It’s a chilly night,
But my mind is elsewhere,
What to do,
What am I to do?

So many options,
But only one choice.
Confused,
I’m lost.

Do I go down this path?
Is this what I want?
It may be the wrong one,
I can’t take this.

Am I afraid?
Is that it?
Or am I just,
Hopeless?

Not to shabby Zoo!

I studied Geology in college. I'm a commercial painter by profession. I have never been able to write creatively very well; especially poetry. I have a respect for those that can do it well...heck, even half-way well.

Nice:)

You've asked the million dollar question that so many seek Shaun!

"Do I go down this path?
Is this what I want?
It may be the wrong one,
I can’t take this.

Am I afraid?
Is that it?
Or am I just,
Hopeless?"

Every once in a while I ask myself that too. Nicely done! See, you're becoming quite the poet!

fear, uncertainty and confusion - decisions to make and all on ones own!

you gave me butterflies! hard choices to make and follow!
