Lost

How did I get here?
Where was I headed?
Which way do I go?
This is what I’ve always dreaded

Taking a big adventure without a map
and getting off track
I’ve been gone too long and gone too far
to just head back

Fear prevents me from going any further
even though my treasure is right around the bend
For the first time in my life, I’ve lost
and not sure how it is all going to end

Can someone help me?
Kindly guide me back onto course?
I’ve lost all my determination and motivation
Traits that used to make me such a force

I have been sucked dry and am just a shell
How do I find myself again?
I’m so tired and worn out, the task at hand
seems so hard to begin

Where do I go from here?
I don’t know where I fit in anymore
Out of one world, not quite belonging to any other
There are locks on all the doors

How do I move on?
Can I just sit here and rest awhile?
Will my ship come back for me?
I’ve been walking for miles

Yes, I’ll just sit down right here
and wait for someone to come
Then I can follow them out of these woods
I haven’t seen anyone yet … but surely they will come
