...and counting...

old for a young man
too bad that i can't
get some wisdom
beyond the span of my years
i wish for resolution
i pray for answers to the questions
i've been asking
for so long
i guess i don't have enough faith
to see the way
prepared for me

even if it's a hard road to hoe
i would rather see
than have it easy
because my sealed eyes
know that something lies
in front of them
and i'm scared
of what i may walk into
someone's rearranged the room
i try to feel my way around
i take comfort
in the firmness of the ground
i listen close
so to make out every sound
i breathe in and i taste
but the strongest sense i have
is to not make haste
to trust God
to exhibit faith
if i trust and obey
i will not lay to waste
on a need-to-know basis
i will know what steps to take
and when i do not know
i will not break
though i may shake
i will not be loosened
i will still believe
and he will find my footing
