One

I am seeking my bearings my search has little direction

I get distracted so easily I must learn to pay attention

This labyrinth called life is there for me to unscramble

I keep looking for cheat codes even as I know it is a gamble

 

Hands outstretched You wait with patience as I fumble

I rely on my sense of superiority You still don’t let me tumble

The one source in the universe with a 24X7 access

The only thing I need to learn indeed is to trust the process

 

You let me make my own choices my fallacies are forgiven

That I will be bailed out off situations beyond repair is a given

I take so much for granted I wonder how You keep Your calm

I walk into spikey paths myself You still provide the balm

 

Your omniscience is overwhelming how do I seek knowledge

Your omnipotence is awe-inspiring where do I get salvage

Take me in Your wings in such a manner life after life is saved

Save me from my own self so that my misplaced ego is enslaved

 

You show me the way I keep wandering away nonchalantly

You bring me back ever so gently I shrug it off gratefully

Only when I look back later at the perils I managed to escape

Do I realize the immensity of Your handiwork sans the cape

 

Is it age that will mellow us or experiences sweet and bitter

Is it space that is constricting or is it time that we fritter

My chaos needs Your harmony my noise requires Your silence

I am not perfect but I belong to You. That is my sole defense
