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 hope that 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 does grow and grow Nothing but life truths I know Finding I must walk each day Dare the maze and find the way |

Wonderful ! Only hope that 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 does grow and grow Nothing but life truths I know Finding I must walk each day Dare the maze and find the way Walk on, dear brother,and know that each crossroad you come to...the one you take will be the one you needed. And that the next message you need will ALWAYS come...exactly where you are. I thank you for the blessing this poem has given me. |
