Anxious about life’s uncertainty
I tread “not knowing,” nervously
Anticipating future subverting me
My next will be worse, most certainly
Expecting life to be hurting me
I partnered with fear preserving me
And, with worry hyper-alerting me
My living became itsemergency
……………………………………………….
Scared by my dread perverting me
I awakened to hope deserting me
Defied my fright…and, turned to free
The man of faith, I was meant to be
Out with my dread…God purging me
I embraced uncertainty serving me
Ahead, unseen… I’ve learned to see
The course of life runs imperfectly
Armed with mystery affirming me
I needn’t know who I’ll emerge to be
And with unknown’s path asserting me
I’m trusting uncertain as (my) certainty
