Life's Mysteries and Fears

 

We walk through the maze of a mysterious life

treading carefully through dangerous mine fields

Confounded by darkness and swirling mists

We awake with trepidation and alertness

and enter the fray with pensive anxiety

Nothing seems to make any sense

 

Upside down and inside out

we are confused and riddled with doubts

Assailed by fact and fiction distorted by untruths

manipulators and cheats at every corner

Often alone we are fearful of any sudden noise

Dark forces surround and crowd about us

 

We seek security and solace

friends to hold and guide us

A light that will illuminate our path

a rock as our refuge from the storm

Then there is God
