Labyrinth

 Will I escape the labyrinth of my mind? 

My thoughts and feelings intertwine. 

The hardest part of the race, is myself. 

I keep hitting dead ends screaming for help. 

Being lost in my mind is a scary place. 

Can I find my way out and get out of the race? 

Is there even an exit in here, or am I just trapped inside. 

When it becomes too much I just sit here and hide. 

Can I escape all the thoughts that are pouring into my mind? 

When will I stop hating myself and start to be kind?

Is this labyrinth even a maze at all? 

Or is it just a garden and my mind is stuck in a season of fall? 

I keep going around and around again. 

I want this nightmare to end. 

There is always an easy way out of here. 

But it’s probably my biggest fear.

What if I turn this maze in my head

To a beautiful garden with flowers instead?

Watering myself every day.

Slowly working hard at taking the pain away. 

Allowing others to be in this race.

But we are a team and they help me with my pace. 

I feel trapped in the labyrinth in my mind. 

But there’s no way out and nowhere to truly hide.
