I’m in a maze that’s overgrown
I walk and search, but all alone
The paths like days seem all the same
I’ve not a map or heart to claim

Each turn I think I might be right
But only walls again I sight
I try to climb but only fall
The right way out, I can’t recall

I’m trapped and maze around me grows
I’m numb but no one really knows
I yell but who will hear my plea?
I’m deep within the core of me

I pass the window of my eye
Wading through the tears I cry
Finding it so hard to see
The good things that might come to me

I’m lost and don’t know where to go
I search for answers I don’t know
Met by just another wall
And obstacles that block it all

In the maze that life did build
Every path so question filled
Every wall that blocked my view
Every turn of what to do?

Ever growing, ever lost
Pathways that I often crossed
In my thoughts which seem a haze
Lost within the growing maze

Only hoping as I walk
A guide within my head will talk
Showing me which way is out
How to turn the luck about

But the maze still tends to grow
Nothing but life's truth I know
Finding I must walk each day
Dare the maze and find my way

Rick, you are not alone at finding walls or getting lost in mazes.

Let me loan you my ladder...

Keep your faith and remember that for each wall you climb, you become stronger and higher, and that great things are planned for you.

You may not know right now what they are, but God never gives us more than what he knows we can handle....

Your words touched my soul.

Warm Hugs, Fee

Expressions,
are the most important aspects, they create impressions

(..)(..) Of you

Dear Fee, thank you for you lovely reply here and the loan of your ladder, much appreciated. These words came as I was walking, funny where they come from, but always great to put them on paper and share them with friends.
Take care my friend and be well.

Sincerely
Rick
