Confused by this present state
because I’ve failed to assimilate.
My shield of safety has crumbled,
but I try franticly not to stumble.
All that once was has disappeared.
Clothed in inexperience and fear,
my insecurities were fully exposed.
I’m haunted by the roads I chose,
where vulnerability was the focus,
and I lost those worth my trust.
I participated in foreign affairs
only to fall on my knees in despair.
The line between right and wrong
blurred or wasn’t there all along.
Help me find a clearing in the haze,
the straighter path in this maze
that’s hidden from my periphery.
I ask that you come in a hurry
before the last remnants of sanity
vanish with my faith in humanity.
