Here I am
Alone and so confused
Imprisoned
Where walls whisper solitude
Unwinding corridors
No notion where they lead
Any beauty on the surface
Hiding leagues of rot beneath


If you could hear me
Would you sense how far I've gone astray?
A little every day
I would pay dearly
To find a pathway to escape
And leave this endless place


So here I am
Lost within the maze
Indecision
A trudge through countless days
Labyrinthine avenues
No notion where they lead
Whispers burning like a furnace
It brings me to my knees

If you would see me
Could you tell how far I’ve gone astray?
A little every day
I will pay dearly
To find a pathway to escape
And leave this endless place

In splintered waves
Perceptions break
My journey here has been erased
A coiled array
Of great dismay
A voice will guide and I obey

Silent, but for the sound
Of echoes of footsteps
Timelessly circling
This world inside my head

Glorious emptiness
Where shadows dance within
Solitary wanderer
Lost inside forever
