lonely places

somehow i have ended up in a place
i never expected to be

(thinking i know things
thinking i can plan things)
it shows me truths i am afraid to see.

i can only wonder at what the rest of my life might bring -
i can only plan for the things that i do -
there is comfort in knowing this.

but right now - my dreams that lit the way are gone
the darkness is a lonely place to be.
