Boredom Prelude
When I wake up, I see no purpose
But to thank God
Thank God for allowing me to breathe,
and to thank God for allowing me to see.
My life, I don't believe
I move as if I'm a puppet
& I don't recognize what I feel,
even if I squeeze.
My soul has suffered defeat.
I mean, why must I feel so discreet?
(Sigh)
Answers & God's calling is what I seek.
No matter how much I read,
or how much I "think" I believe,
My heart signals my mind that
it's something I haven't achieved . . .
(Sigh)
When I ask God what's my purpose,
I don't seem to comprehend,
then I become hopeless;
how bogus?
Man,
I swear this is not how I imagined life to be,
After achieving so much,
I'm stuck
Going through casualties . . .
(Sigh)
I wish this was all a dream.
But it's comparable to a nightmare,
a fright; indeed . . .
Sometimes I tell myself encouraging things.
But i'm at a loss for words,
suddenly . . .
