I feel totally lost, bewildered
my emotions can overwhelm me
I can feel as though God is
missing
that God has left me alone
that God is indifferent
to my little problems
that God has turned
his face from me, my life,
I feel totally lost,
bewildered
my emotions can overwhelm me
separating me from the love
of God
