Somewhere To Be

Somewhere To Be

© 2002 by Bud Lemire

Is there somewhere I should be, or something I should know

Is there something I should do, or somewhere I should go

Many have given me advice, but it doesn't seem to fit me

I'm looking for the answers, so that I can see

Some say to take my time, others say not to wait

I go at my own pace, bordering on the calming state

I do my share of worrying, every day and night

But I know I'm being guided, by God's shining light

I will share my love with others, and do my very best

To take on every challenge, and take on every test

Some days seem so dark, I can hardly move at all

Other days are so bright, I am fast and on the ball

On this journey I am on, is this the place where I belong?

Let God's shining light, always show me right from wrong

I know I will carry on, with every breath I take

For only I can take my steps, with every move I make

Is there somewhere I should be, or something I should know

Is there something I should do, or somewhere I should go

Many have given me advice, but some of them are wrong

To carry out my destiny, I must listen to my own song

Mom had just passed and my siblings were pressuring me

to do something. I was still grieving and didn't know what

to do. They wanted me to get a better job, and to find another

home. I didn't know where to look, as I had lived in this home

for 38 years. It was a very sad and confusing time in my life.
