Lost by Marilyn Dixon Pfanstiel
My heart cries out like a lost soul
As the child within feels so alone.
The depth of despair rushes over me
As the feelings of rejection overwhelms me.
God, help me to
reach within myself
To find the strength to climb out of this abyss.
I realize I cannot rely on others
To make me feel worthy or worthwhile,
That along with your guidance,
I can again find purpose in life.
I know I am here on earth
to make it a better place.
But, God help me...
I seem to have lost my way...
