[Poetry] Father

I am being pulled from one corner of the world to the other.
My decisions are no longer my own.
My mind is scattered, broken into pieces, unfixable by human hands.
I feel like I am losing it.
An overwhelming sense of confusion clouds my mind and judgment.
Who can help me now?
Who could push me through this mindless void?
Father, Why aren't you with me showing me the way?
What have I done to warrant such wrath upon me?
I'm drowning, gasping for air, grabbing at what was my life.
Trying to express simple emotion that I once took for granted.
Father can you hear me?
Can't you see the pain and grief in my eyes?
Where is your love that you said was everlasting?
Was it an encouraging lie?
My world is closing in on itself.
Father, can't you see. . .
I'm lost without direction.
Help me, Father!
Help me, please!

Kenny.

WOW! Kenny! I am feeling each one of your words. To me, it feels like your emotions are so wound up that it may seem impossible to unravel them on your on. I feel the exact same way sometimes. Actually I felt like that this entire week. Look inside yourself and locate what truly makes you happy. Try to find the things inside of you that can take you to that calm place. In my world, I just shut off all communications until I can hear myself think again. You seem to be much deeper than that. I am here if you want to chat. Take care.
