Have you ever had your life short circuit? Everything you know flashing day & night?
Had a powerless sense when all goes wrong? Had no tools that could make anything right?
Seen your horizon approaching too fast? Scrambled for breaks to slow certain impacts?
Helpless at speed as the exits fly by? Hoping you’re wrong about pendulous facts?
Or born in a bullet that’s always blank? No powder to fire at life’s bullseye?
Praying that daylight brightens your tunnels? Squinting in darkness for answers so sly?
The lie of light & solutions ahead; all external fixes with naught for proof.
A compass of heart & it’s failsafe thoughts; better shelters from storms than any roof.
I’m asking you this as I ask myself… Where should we turn when all else is failing?
Keep watch of others while tracing their tracks? Look inwards for light… for solid railing.
