Confusion engulfs me today
As I remember things past
And wish the future more clear
Wondering about life's paths.

Confusion engulfs me today.
As I contemplate my life
Wondering about lost spirituality
Uncertainty screams loudly

Confusion engulfs me today
As I wonder about love
About the joys and heartaches
Contemplating passions and pitfalls

Confusion engulfs me today
As i wonder about things said
What are right and wrong things
Where are the lines in all this gray.

Confusion engulfs me today
Exhaustion tightens its grip
On my ability to think straight.
So now I must fall asleep.

StartinFresh~

On a clear day - I can see forever'
and then there are days like you write of
where total Confusion limits the periphery of my vision.
It is at these times that I realize more fully
that I have to go outside of me to reach others.
And so I do ...

You expressed it well and I thank you for sharing.
