Maze

I feel like I'm falling…….
And there's no landing in view

I can't breathe…….
But there is no air left in my lungs

I crave love and want  to be loved
But my heart gave out many moons ago

I am thirsty……….
But there is no water in sight

I feel like I'm going around in circles
with no way out. Wait! I think I see a 
way out. No it's just another turn. I'm 
stuck and I can't get out. Is this a maze?
Dam it is a maze. I'm caught up in 
a never ending circle called life. My
life is a maze. Can you relate? Have you
ever felt  like your life is merely a maze?

Round and round I go, in a maze, my brain in a haze. I know the feeling well, Alexis. ~ gw

Does that make your life A-Maze-ing? Yes at times life does take challenging turns.

Hi Alexis, whether a maze, a merry go round or the swings, live is a sometimes up sometimes down journey , an absolute maze - yes I get it, we are in life's maze, I agree with you, I see it clearly. So well penned my friend. Hugs and blessings, Jenn.
