       Asking to enter,
             I was led to the most unlikely place
The door was open...I stepped over the threshold

I saw in amazement a labyrinth so complex,
             so intricate...
                I doubted my ability to negotiate it

I decided to trust....no thinking allowed...

    The heart will lead the way...Listen, Listen

     Each turn was an assault upon my mind and heart
          Each clashing with the next

Brilliant, wild, intense
         Softley, lovely, tender
                so cruel and harsh
                      Sensual, wanton, raw
                             Silly and funny

     Exsquisitly beautiful...
                        Turning
                               Turning
  As the scene changes I am moved
         tenderness to fear, lust to awe

I try to flee...round and round...my senses blur
         there is no up or down or out...

  Then,
       my heart beating a steady rhythm
                                      I stand still
     There..in the center, I wait

And now I see...

                There you are

Candy,
I like how this builds. I gotta find that maze!

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane,
I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.
