I am lost

Oh I wish I were trapped in a grand devised maze
At least there would be an offering of some hope
But alas no walls there to swallow embrace
Nor do tears trickle tracks down my long face
I can only see the imagery of walking in fetters

I’m not lost from God I am quite spoken for
My heart beats the pace I walk forward in faith
But my body seeks more sustenance indeed
So singularly I seek what I really don’t need
I’m not lost I’m just a weak fool Oh I feel better!!

Quite a clever poem, this...and sustenance~seeking can, indeed, lead to introduction of that mistakenly lost fool in us all. I enjoyed it.

Interesting Walt - and like Meadow said it is clever. We often think we need what we don't - and most find out too late.
