No, I don't know where I'm going
No, I don't know who I am
Things have changed so quickly
I'm unable to understand
Lies, depair and bitter betrayal
Always seemed close to me
God you have to show me a way
Whether it's You
Or someone to guide me through these tainted nights
There has to be "something"
To make things right
If it may be guidance
Or a sign from above
Show me hope of non desperation
Within my helpless love
No, I don't know who I am
Things have changed so quickly
I'm unable to understand
Lies, depair and bitter betrayal
Always seemed close to me
God you have to show me a way
Whether it's You
Or someone to guide me through these tainted nights
There has to be "something"
To make things right
If it may be guidance
Or a sign from above
Show me hope of non desperation
Within my helpless love

I have been on writer's block for a while, and I am trying to get on the right track. I knoqw it might have been a bit forced, and I know you like free verse ... I would have tried different, but it just didnt come out that way. I hope you enjoyed your contest.

First of all, I LOVE the answer without the question. Brilliant dear. I just think that it's simple yet contains a complicated issue. You're screaming for help without really screaming, and the way you've worded it gives it that air of sophisticated-ness even though I'm sure you feel much less than that.
The rhyming is a bit iffy, and truth is it probably would have been better as a free verse but as you said, it just came out that way and a lot of the time (in my opinion) when things are messed with too much, it takes away the truth and real emotions behind it.
I wish you the best of luck in the contest, if it hasn't already been judged.
Although it may not be considered a classic or whatever, it's still a great write.
And God knows, I'm not the only who can relate.
Ily hun.
