Labyrinth
My childhood warned me of age,
But now I move through this labyrinth
That ushers the days of discontent.
I have this problem to solve,
And this present to escape
Only leaving me with this future to suffer.
Till the journey ends;
I’ll feed off flashbacks with hopeful eyes
Like the summer heat that was never noticed
Or the footprints that wandered through the blizzard’s remnants.
I’ll continue to ponder that vacation I only believed I took
A lion, I am, journeying to somewhere
With a lost life that is roaring inside me.
This repetition of imagining leads me to Nowhere;
A place where futures are lost
And the past is an illusion.
How will I ever escape
