Mind is Labyrinthine and so is Life- Expansion of the first three lines, I wrote as a comment on Night Soul woman's poem...
The Labyrinths of Life and Mind
The labyrinth of life
and the labyrinth of mind
inter-twine to create a maze
that is difficult to define...
Memories of yore
Fragments of anguish
Burning to core
Strings of experiences
knotted together
to create a mesh
through which
Life sieves through…
Dreams of love, like
birds soaring high
Falling flat on the face
Shattering to pieces
that can’t be put together
to create a whole,
A whole you…
Fragments of broken heart
A kaleidoscope of scars
of painful colours and hues
Of golden desires muted
by the Time’s cruel hand…
All inter-twine
To create a maze
Difficult to define
The labyrinth of life
And the labyrinth of mind
Injure the heart
So tender,
So vulnerable
So innocent,
So divine…
