WHERE TO FROM HERE?

Blackness, darkness, soul-less…chain

Coldness, dampness, mindless…game

Senseless, tasteless, touchless…lame

Compassionless, lifeless, blackness…same

Nowhere to go-there’s nowhere to hide

Deeper and further in, on a slippery slope I slide

Blissless, meaningless, countless…days

Alcohol-less, drugless, pill-less…haze

You need help, a friend, a partner at least my dear

Would love to go with you, but where to from here?

Rankless, questionless, purposeless,…stank

Wisdomless? Thankless, harmless…prank

Heartless, courageless, visionless…gaze

Soundless, directionless, lightless…maze

There are only a few places to run, yet nowhere to hide

Deeper and further in, on a slippery slope I slide

Say you’d like to forge forward, without fear

Not like a crippled soldier bringing up the rear

But strong and confident is how you’d like to appear

“I hear ya,” said the cabbie, but…exactly…where to from here?
