In the Maze

Lost in Darkness

lost in a maze

of my own creation

nothing to hold me

but empty spaces

every dead end corner

like the one before

the darkness constantly

follows me

warning the calm before the storm

all around whispers secrets

safely hidden

amongst the vines

dare not light the fire

as it would reveal

the shadows in my mind

too afraid to turn

the corner and see

the demons are

close behind

every single edge

I run in to

the possibility that

I will be forever be bound

careful not to make

a sound

some things are

never meant to be

found

sad poetry
