i'm lost.
that old dog
who pays the cost.
somehow
i got outta' the fence
and ever since
i've lost my way.
every day
i stray
further away.
not knowin' where
i'm goin' to.
not bein' there
'till i do.
roamin' the street
chancin' to meet
another day
another night
that might
shed some light
on Lif's Road.
might lightin my load.
not wantin' ta' be here.
not wantin' ta' go away.
not wantin' the fear
of "come what may".
where is my home?
how long must i roam?
wonderin' if i will
make it over Life's next Hill.
and still,
i trudge along.
i find a song.
i write a ryhme.
i pass the time.
i go on.
i pay the cost.
i'm lost.
