What am I suppose to do
when everything falls apart
What am I suppose to do
When I don’t know where to start
He come to me for guiding light
But I am lost in the dark of the night
He wants to leave but always stay
His mom is pushing him away
What am I suppose to do
When we both are breaking down
What am I suppose to do
When he never comes around
He never frowns
And always wear a smile
But I know he’s hurting
Trying to keep it down
What am I suppose to do
When I know he miss his dad
What am I suppose to do
When I know what’s in his head
Grief and pain it ways him down
But what am I suppose to do when he wears it like a crown
He joke and smile and clown around
But what am I suppose to do
When I know the real him is hiding deep inside
His head is buried deep in sand
Hiding from the truth of being a man
He’s not ready to bear the stress
Of cleaning up the family mess
What am I suppose to do
When I love him with all of my heart
But what am I suppose to do
When I can’t make his pain stop
Lord if you are there
Please tell me
What am I suppose to do

Beautiful, Thank you for sharing.

WELCOME FRIEND ~ Thanks for your poem ~ which I liked ! It is well written and it pulsates with rhyme & rhythm ~ making it easy to read & recite ! But the subject of "A lost soul" is sad and upsetting ! Your title asks a question "What am I supposed to do ?" I will answer you at the end ! You are both sad ~ because of His situation and because you Love Him ! Smiling but hurting ~ we often try to hide our PAIN from others ! He misses his DAD ~ all Men & Boys do ! He really is hurting inside ~ but (like a lot of Men do) ~ he hides His head in the sand ~ is he your BROTHER or a FRIEND ? Your last verse provide one answer ~ There is a GOD and you can pray with Him & for Him ~ also you can be with Him and continue to give Him the support He needs ! MPS is an empathetic site and I am praying for you ~ Yours BRIAN (UK) ~ Please check my poems ~ Thanks B !
