Lost in the Present



Seeking to understand what can't be understood
Looking behind and ahead 
Everywhere but beneath my own roof

I reach into my past and pluck out my failures
I envision my future
Picturing all my dreams and goals underachieved

I come back to the present and breathe hopelessness 
Into my life
I teeter between driven and lost and feel like a mess
Creating my own comfortable bubble of success

Addicted to the thrill of launching a new idea
Tending to get overwhelmed
Drained at the thought of persistence
Commitment

The same thing that 
Brought me to life
Now drowning me
In insecurity

I choose to trust in my guide
Who knows much better than I

Picture all my worries as bricks
Pass them over to him
In exchange for a load never to heavy to lift

Carry peace instead 
Trust in his guidance 
Allow him to be the head
Of all my dreams and goals and failures
Now I may truly rest in bed
