"I live in fear as an orphan down here"

Orphan Left disappointed by theology Left unsatisfied by biology Left empty-handed by philosophy In a seemingly random universe In a bad situation getting worse Apart from cant and rant to search the sky I live in fear as an orphan down here Not the best man but surely not the worst Not important certainly not the first Nor last to sink under this rising sea Left here to die without quite knowing why Left alone to wonder until I do Left on the brink not knowing what to think I turn back to childhood when I knew you God if you are there please would you show me If we could have a future you and I? +Steven Curtis Lance Copyright MMVII

I can relate to many of these sentiments, Stevie. Truly you are not alone with such questioning thoughts. Love, peace, and strength to you,

Hang in there Stephen! There's always a light at the end of the tunnel if we search hard enough...

Sad poem but one of a person searching. Search for God and he will allow himself to be found.

You wrote a masterpiece which captures the fears of everyone at least at times.
God Bless,
Lew
