Where Do I Go


 

Where Do I Go

By: Mary Thomas

Where do I go when I’m feeling lost

Or in need of a helping hand

Lonesome always seem to be right by my side

It’s like were two best friends

But I don’t want to be best friends or even friends at    that

I pray for guidance and wisdom I don’t want to be a fool like the rest

I ask the almighty God to strip the anger and the hateful thoughts I tend to have

I wouldn’t say I so much ask I beg

So where do I go? Where do I search for joy and happiness

I want to be stress free

Hell I just want to be free

Free from all this Damn anger I have and for what reason?

Am I self-imprisoning ?

If so I just hope it comes to an end

I just want to be the young woman my Mother had raised be to be

So where do I go to stop this hate building up inside of me because it’s eating me alive.
