The Maze My Mind Has Become

A list of what-if's fill my mind.

I pack the bags under my eyes
with exhaustion.

Walking with fright,
unsure if I'm making any sense. 

You're the road I take
to unknown places.

The forgotten dark roads left behind
with pieces of myself intertwined.

You're a soul-crushing cackle,
bouncing around me at night.

Sleep, or my mind,
what do I call on tonight?

I spoke to myself,
to calm the craziness,
but there's nothing I could do.

The only way out is through.
