Show me the way back home
At times like this I feel so lost and confused
By the energy of others
I search for myself within the noise of their voices
Telling me who I am and what to do
And I get lost with a homelessness beyond description
That begins to yawn before me
Becoming a profound abyss
Of nothingness
Eclipsing me
And then my soul nearly drowns
In a underground ocean
Where I am dissolved
It is only when I return home
To this quiet and cool
I find my centre again
In the midst all of the confusion
All that is unseen
And all I make up with my mind
Oh God please help me
Lead me back to my centre
Drown out the other noise
Help me to find
The way back home
To a quiet calm silence
Where inner truth is known
Emerging From The Dark Night 
Sometimes, we have to turn others off so we can hear who we truly are. I am sure this resonates with many of us. Well-said!
