Lost and Incomplete

Lost in a world I grew up in
Taking the paths I was told
Faltering with every step I keep taking
Not knowing where I'm going wrong.
I do all I was told to
I do everything that I learnt along the way
Did i pick up on something I shouldn't have
Has everything I learnt just lead me astray.
What do I do ahead of this
Do I go ahead thinking all will be alright
Is everything happening for a reason
Will I ever see the light.
Just staying strong is easy to say
Just keep moving on is easy to do
Will this road that I'm taking ever end somewhere happy
Or will I just be forever blue.
Acceptance is hard to swallow
Regret is easy to digest
How do I learn from all my mistakes?
Will my existence just always be a mess?

There's always hope and always tomorrow. Futures can turn on a dime and blessings can fall from the sky. I was all set to go at old age alone. Now I'm in my sixties and raising a young daughter. My wife is 10 years younger than me and was told she could never have kids. So she gave up all hopes of ever being a mom long ago. Now, she is a mom and I'm just as happy as one man can be with my little family. Never give up hope. Never give up your dreams. Believe in the good things life holds and live every day to its fullest, that's my advice. When things seem like they'll never change is just when they do. Bless, F.
