A pome by Jerry Figueroa BLINDED BY FEAR I look around to find what I seek. Yet, I have no idea what to look for. I cannot tell what my heart is saying; it has been so long since I have let it speak freely. My mind has lied to me time and time again. Until now there is no trust; I am lost; I cannot find my way. The lies of my mind and heart have made it so I cannot reach the truth. I cannot understand why I have surrendered my life so easily. Surely to me, it would have been worth fighting for. For if I could see, I would claw my way through, but I am blinded by fear. Oh, Lord, if this is what is to become of me, strike me dead. . . Now, so I cannot offend Thee more than my life has already done. Or, Lord, show me the way that I may find the straight and narrow. And, Lord, burn the truth in my heart so I will know nothing of lies. And if it be, give me a portion of my life so I can be a flame of courage to lead those who are blinded by the fear of righteousness.
