Notes About The Poem

An Emotional Maze

Feeling lost in an emotional maze anxiety saps my body and soul; stumbling mindlessly through a foggy haze. Staring deep into your eyes in a daze, I lament the innocence that time stole; feeling lost in an emotional maze. Impressed by flattery's flamboyant ways, I ignore reality's costly toll; stumbling mindlessly through a foggy haze. Bullied by deceit and the tricks lust plays, I cling to whatever makes me feel whole; feeling lost in an emotional maze. A pyre of doubts can't rekindle love's blaze, lodged deep in my heart like a lump of coal; stumbling mindlessly through a foggy haze. Tangled in a web of lies and clichés; admonishing trust, I regret its role. Feeling lost in an emotional maze; stumbling mindlessly through a foggy haze.
