Canyons Of Life Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

In myself, feeling totally lost, forsaken, I cannot be what
I am supposed to be, it leaves me feeling empty, desolate,
at a loss.

Amid great canyons of life I cannot find the way to get
through them, they are too formidable, too steep to even
dare get out of.

Yet, at the innermost part of my being my soul stirs, seeing
the hopelessness of life and how utterly helpless I am.

Feeling totally lost, forsaken, knowing there is nothing I can
do, remaining within myself.
