Show Me the Way, Today and Everyday
A sestet poem of hope and despair

Lord give me strength,
And wisdom too,
To do the things that I must do,
I can’t go on without your help,
Help me Lord, make me strong
To find a path where I belong.
++++ ------ ++++
I don’t understand how it came to this,
I struggle to see what it was that I missed,
Many things I’ve come to regret,
I try so hard to let go and forget,
But I doubt myself and who I am,
Lord, help me to be brave and strong.
++++ ------ ++++
Lord, show me the light
And make it strong
A beacon that will right the wrong,
I loved her then and I love her now
But she’s moved on, with others now
And all I can do is wonder how.
++++ ------ ++++
Lord, give me grace,
To find my place,
My heart is weak, my life misplaced,
I dwell on things out of my control,
Teach me how to let this go,
Lord, give me strength so I might know.
++++ ------ ++++
My head is weary,
My heart is hurt,
My confidence is low,
No self-esteem to greet the world,
Tell me, Lord, which way do I go?
++++ ------ ++++
Till next time,
