i'm running trough tunnels, with walls of eyes. not sure where i'm headed, not sure where i've been. confused about everything. not sure of life. not sure whether it's day or night. not sure of who to turn to. i'm stuck in the middle. always have been. i've got to get out. got to get away. the eyes are staring at me, there's no escape. no door that says "exit" above it. no light to follow. i'm so scared. i don't know where to go. people are messing with my head. there are no people. i break into a run. eager to get out. can't see where i'm going. i can't catch my breath. hands are coming out of the walls. reaching, trying to find an arm to grab, a mouth to muffle a scream. the eyes are staring at me, there's no escape. no door that says "exit" above it. no light to follow. i'm in the tunnel of confusion. of anger. of hurt. it echos. i'm in a labyrinth of confusion. of anger. of hurt. it echos. my mind has given up. now i must reley on my heart, though i'm not sure it's up to it. i stop to catch my breath, no, the hands... the eyes are staring at me, there's no escape. no door that says "exit" above it. no light to follow. i hate to leave you hanging. this doesn't seem to end good. people have played with my mind. there's no escape. there are 2 ways of spreading light: to be the candle, or the mirror that reflects it. -unknown |

May just be me, but this seemed more like lyrics than poetry. |

This is great, I agree, it could easily be put to music ELMO "No man is EVER worth my tears, and the one who is, will never make me cry!" |
