PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I'm driving this life-long race

Never reaching the finish line

Because I'm simply saving face

As I pretend everything's fine.



This course has been charted.

There's no way of turning back,

Because I end up at the start

Since this is a circular track.



The road I drive leads nowhere

As my surroundings get stranger

The street signs read "Beware"

Because I'm headed for danger.



When I'm ready to lose control,

I hand over the steering wheel.

You'll help me reach my goal

As You drive this automobile.



All I can do is apply the brakes

And let go so You and I collide.

Only when I do whatever it takes

Will You be able to be my guide.



I have tried to maintain momentum

But in circles, I've been spinning.

You will be my navigation system;

Soon, this race, I'll be winning.
