MY CROSSROADS

I'm at a crossroad looking dumb,
Confused about the right path to take I feel so numb,
Surrounded my predators and scavengers my next step feels irrelevant,
Is this the end for something I once knew was very important?

I'm at a crossroad thinking deep about my next line of actions,
People mockingly coming behind laughing and jeering as they take to their different directions,
With no strong backups and connections,
I feel this is the end of all my surging motions.

I'm at a crossroad taking hit from the rain and the sun,
I wish God could here me say "Please it's me Your son",
With roads finely tarred and enormously wide,
Still I find it hard because my minds and legs are tied.

I'm at a crossroad gnashing hard and looking up,
I've swallowed my pride and every word like drinking water with a lousy gulp,
My situation wouldn't have been this entwined,
If only I could have asked God for the ability to make up my silly mind.
