In this dark forest alone in the night I stand
With nothing but a compass in my hand
I stay positive for I know the plan is grand
Almighty won’t forget and leave me to strand
But my faith starts to waver ‘cause am without a rand
How can I still sing his praise and that of his brand?
I wonder if I’ve turned into a lowly Scand
For I’ve forgotten his name in the heat of this sand
Defeat is taking over me and every one of my gland
For I have lost direction in this strange land…
Live Your Dreams 24/7 
Beautiful

There is a scene in the Dragonlance fantasy novels where the heroes wander into a forest and lose direction. This made me think of that 🙂

Haven’t watched it so can’t say how similar the two things are. But losing direction (literally or figuratively) is tough

How to Find the Guiding Star Within
When the Inner Compass is Broken Indeed
Dear Yamini True i’ve Been Without This Compass
Too Rewinding Back to the Last Years of my Dead Zone
Then before i Escaped on A Navarre Beach As Once
Again One With Sugar White Sands Emerald Green
Waves Sea Oats Swaying in the Breeze And Sea Gull
Wings Spiraling Around the Sun Our Star Soon To Become
A Free Dance
And Song of
Faith Within
Once Again
Love Winging
Belief For All That is Hope
DarK Thru LiGHT So Many
More Colors of my Tree oF LiGHT
to LiFE Up in Dance And Song Free oF LiFE
SMiLes Dear FRiEnD i See the Shape of What
i Just Write Without Plans And Just Evidence
More This Compass Within is Still on Fire Alive
Yet’s It’s True i have yet to Rewind to the Last Years
of the Dead Zone so i Will For ‘They’ Always Taught me
That God Is After Death Somewhere in A Far Away Place
in a Dirt Nap to Actually Meet and Live There With Also Strangely
That i would take my Place on the Right Hand Side of God Yet How
Will that Be as that is More Reflective of Literal Left Brain Processes
of Small Picture Material Reduced Thinking Often Shallow in Feelings
And Senses Often Far Away From Even Embodied Whole as Being Human
Trapped in
Just Words of Dusty Old
Books and Such As That
Well Meanwhile then in the Dead
Zone i Walked Around Our Block
at 3 AM As Usual in the Spring Dark
And Quiet Not to Hurt my Eyes and Ears
So Much as Yes Dark Curtains in Our Home
Blocked Out the LiGHT True in Someways i
Had Become a Vampire Then Just No Blood
of Hope, Love, Faith, Belief or Even A Memory
if i ever Felt a Smile Before as i Looked to the Dark
Skies With Twinkling Stars that are Harder to See with
Brown SHades on Wondering As Many Folks Related Was
God Up THere Somewhere to Be Found Yet i Knew the Truth
Cold and Hot Rocks as Far As Science Will See So Far Devoid
of Life Like Ours Still To Be Our Only Planet Our Home For Us Truly
Evolving to Live
On FOR REAL
BENEATH mY
Feet Truly i Still Could
Touch the Earth With No
Compass of North to South
to East to West Required to
Find Out Where I am Presently Now New
Then Forever Now Standing On Earth For Real…
And Then my FRiEnD the Voice Within So Much
Deeper And Bigger Picture Embodying With All that
is So Much More Left Handed in Metaphor on the Left
Side of God With Right Brain More Fully Alive as Mind Left
And Right Integral Communing Whole SoUL For Real THere Was/IS No
Question Anymore WHere God is As Again Once Again i Became ‘i AM’
the Sugar White Sands Emerald Green Gulf Waves Sea Oats Swaying
In the Breeze And Sea Gull Wings Spiraling Around Our Star the Sun
i Am the Beach
And The Forest
And The Streams
That Make The Rivers
Flow to the Bay Emptying
into the Gulf of Mexico Eventually
Flowing Into the Atlantic And Pacific
Oceans Surrounding the Earth Wow
How Amazing We Are Living Creatures
Who May Measure So Much of God in
One Lifetime Within my FRiEnD So then
i Understood God is Within Outside Inside
Above So Below All Around God Is All that is
And the Best Part of All Is i Am Human And Gifted
in Such a Way to Love it All DarK thru LiGHT Eternally Now New
And Even Make ‘Contact’ With Another Human Being Around
The World Who Transforms Her Soul into Avatars of Words Yes
As i Surely Do too Through These Avatar Words of Soul True Now
It’s A Tight Squeeze Fitting All 244 American Pounds of me through
This Fiber Optic Cable Yet at the Speed of LoVE For All (God) That is God
All in All For Real
My Goodness
Anything Yes is
Possible New Now
For Real in A place
With No Sun, or Moon,
Or Stars Beyond Distance,
Space, Time, or Even Matter of
my Flesh and Blood Body True
As Long As Servers Serve me Up
This Reflection of the Sugar White Sands
of My Soul All the Emerald Green Waves
Sea Oats Swaying in the Breeze and Sea Gull
Wings Spiraling Around Our Star The Sun Might
Even Last As Long as the Reflection of Beethoven’s
Soul “Moonlight Sonata” Yet It’s True my FRiEnD All We
Have is Eternally Now This Breath At Best to Inhale Peace
Exhale Love With Least Harm For All Giving Sharing Caring
Healing ThiS Way So Yes this is All Naked, Enough, Whole, Complete
Which means Yes This Gift Of Life Presently is Surely Gift Enough to EnJoY
With
SMiLes
As Every
SMiLe is A
Grain of Sand
Holding Mountains
of Human Love Up All Around Our World
Holding Hands This Way With Huge Grins
And True After Public Dancing Everywhere
i Go Now in 16,916 Miles in 106 Months How
Beautiful it is to See Folks Smiling at me Everywhere
i go As They See me as Essence of Free Dance Indeed
HAha Before
i Even Begin
to Dance Again
my FRiEnD
So Much Again
to Give Share Care
And Heal Now What A
Wonderful Life This Can And Will Be And Is
Yes As Close As A Smile to Give, Share, Care,
And HeaL ETernAlly Now Real A Breath of God (Love) to Feel For Real..:)
