I Don't Know what to Do

"I don't know what to do." That's what I hear

So many times. I say this constantly.

Yet what I mean, I cannot say for sure--

I only know I'm lost, it's hard to see

.

The purpose in my life; it's hard to feel

What's best to do--what I need most in life

And what my duties are. I must be real,

Authentic in myself, despite my strife;

.

Responsibilities are hard to bear

When what I have to do takes me away

From what is true and good, from what is rare

About me...so I say this every day.

.

I need friends' help to work out what to do

And need self-love. Above all else, that's true.
