What is the Point

by Rod - Scorpio

As time goes by I look ahead,
considering thoughts within my head.
And all I've got to offer,
is the goodness of my heart.

It seems that any words I say,
are never going to help my way.
So what am I to say or do,
so the positive gets thru to you.

It seems that I should walk away,
though that would be a saddening day.
Sometimes I wonder why I try,
and often ask that question - why.

Why the mistrust, why the doubt,
is this what life is all about.

Reason for writing:

    Sometimes it's hard to keep going, even when you believe you're doing the right thing. But faith in God can overcome any obstacle, I believe. Having said that, meaningless and pointless endeavour should never be encouraged or pursued. I wrote this poem to help me consider whether I'm pursuing a meaningless and pointless relationship, or something worthwhile. My heart tells me one thing, but my head is starting to tell me something else.
