Aimless
Oh how would it be to roam aimlessly
To not have anyone depend on me
To not have anyone say…
“Momma I need”
“Sista please”
“Can you work this shift for me”
Oh how would it be to roam aimlessly
To not feel suffocated by suggested pleas
Could I finally breath
Would my own oxygen fill me
When I’m so use to being filled by other’s needs
Oh how would it be to roam aimlessly
To not have so many roles pursuing me
Momma, sister, daughter, friend
Everyday I wake up it starts again
Grudgingly enthusiastic to serve others
Feeling no one entertains the thought of how I’ve been
What it must be like to roam aimlessly
From the dust I rose to the dust I’ll descend
Does it matter what falls in between?
Is this what life’s meant to be
Wanting to be set free from someone always needing me
Screaming inside for someone to, PLEASE REMEMBER ME!
Is this really my life…it couldn’t be
What it must be like to roam aimlessly
To soar like the majestic eagle thru the illuminating sky
To hibernate like the grizzly on a crisp winter night
How it must feel to roam aimlessly
Would I really be set free, or would I just be attempting to flee
From a life that has actually built me
I can’t roam aimlessly !
This may not have been my plan, but it’s my life indeed
This is the path God has laid out for me
This is where I’m needed and meant to be
So, now I choose to enjoy the tasks gifted to me
And next time I feel aimless I’ll kneel to my knees
“Man’s steps are ordered by the Lord. How then can a man understand his way?” -Proverbs 20:24 (AMP)
“The wicked flee when nobody is pursuing them, but the righteous are as bold as a lion.” -Proverbs 28:1 (AMP)
I can complain or I can live gratefully. Today I chose the latter.
Key Message: Life can be overwhelming at times but, the great news is we don’t have to do it alone.
Jesus is waiting and he is enough for you and me.
