In the labyrinth of my mind, I reflect on my life thus far.
Not only a reflection of my thoughts and feelings, but a soul searching.
Totally wrapped in my contemplation, I have fallen inward.
Reality is slipping away and I am buried in the pondering of my life.
On examination it surely has been a tangled path that I have travelled.
Seeking my reason for existence, I am immersed in a whirlwind.
Preoccupied, I dwell in a meditative trance brooding and musing.
Examining one's life is painful and the answers not always easy to accept.
Coming to terms with the past is a tearful journey back in time.
To look inside one self takes courage and truthfulness.
In me are many feelings long buried that are screaming to be revealed.
On my bed, I lay weeping and lost it seems in scenes I want to push away.
No, it is not easy to retreat into one's mind for introspection and absolution.
