Paddling On
I'm lost and all alone
Adrift on a barren sea
No landmarks to point the way
Trying to live...
Trying to survive each day
Time seeming to stand still
Paddling...paddling
But not seeming to make any progress
Everything today
Much the same as it was
Yesterday
Frustration,desperation and depression
Setting In
Here I am
Willing to do anything
Wanting to do something
But not sure
What else to do
But paddle....paddle
Hopefully getting closer
Hopefully making things better
But not knowing for sure
Everything seems to stay the same
Nothing seeming to change
And yet all I can do
Is keep paddling...paddling
Trying to
Survive
