Where Am I?
Father, I'm anxious,
because I'm having it hard.
I'm use to life's pain,
but now obtaining
uexpected scars.
My wife's eyes say "bye",
while I'm trying to say "hi".
I then attempt
to turn toward my child's
innocent cries.
I'm falling to pieces.
Am I losing all?
I fight for a peace of mind.
Am I choosing a fall?
I'm being called,
but everthing is vague
and incoherent.
Am I a good husband,
good man,
the right parent?
God where am I?
Have I traveled alone?
Is anyone happy
about having me home?
Is there a job
that is out here
I should apply for?
I've applied so many places,
and I'm asked to try more.
But I'm asking You, God;
You know better
than us all.
Why are you so silent
right now,
and when You speak
everything's on pause?
So I miss too many things,
and hear just a few words.
I sucked up everything else,
now I'm faced with a new curve.
God where are You,
so I can know where I am?
Because shame is making me feel
like less than a man.
because I'm having it hard.
I'm use to life's pain,
but now obtaining
uexpected scars.
My wife's eyes say "bye",
while I'm trying to say "hi".
I then attempt
to turn toward my child's
innocent cries.
I'm falling to pieces.
Am I losing all?
I fight for a peace of mind.
Am I choosing a fall?
I'm being called,
but everthing is vague
and incoherent.
Am I a good husband,
good man,
the right parent?
God where am I?
Have I traveled alone?
Is anyone happy
about having me home?
Is there a job
that is out here
I should apply for?
I've applied so many places,
and I'm asked to try more.
But I'm asking You, God;
You know better
than us all.
Why are you so silent
right now,
and when You speak
everything's on pause?
So I miss too many things,
and hear just a few words.

now I'm faced with a new curve.
God where are You,
so I can know where I am?
Because shame is making me feel
like less than a man.
