Minotaur
I crossed a path
I crossed before,
Time and again.
Will it end?
Can’t remember
How it happened.
I’m lost here in
This labyrinth.
Trapped by tall walls
Circling tunnels,
Running, running,
And left wondering.
Everything seemed fine,
Until I saw that
City fire and
Its absent smoke.
And my defaults
To fall apart
And suffocate.
Will it end?
And all I love
Disappears in
Flames or rubble
Or in thin air.
When I feel good,
I always think
This feeling will
Sink to darkness
And as will I.
Lost in this maze,
Losing my mind.
I’ll burn bridges,
But won’t cross them.
Fearsome monsters
Condemned forever
In their prisons,
Mine have dead-ends,
Pacing through them
Always tire out.
Will it end?
Only my love can save me,
But I’m left deserted,
So I turn to friends,
Or are they nemeses?
I’m cornered and alone.
And all my recollections
Begin to look like weapons,
And for a moment…
I couldn’t breathe.

And I thought to myself,
“Will it ever end?”
