The maze
Time is slowly eating me away
unravelling my DNA
gnarled branches of yesterday
cast their shadows across the waves
of dreams and memories that will be lost
for times hunger can never be stopped.
I face my walls every day
and every day i will them away
but i built them well brick by brick
i built them strong and i built them thick
i laid my thoughts side by side
cemented together with all my pride
and when i stood back to admire my work
i realised my mistake
i was still on the inside.
Now time is slowly eating me away.
