Maze Poem by Bradley Dean

Maze

Eager for release
Weak yet resolute
Seeking the solution
To all questions
Like keys cut
From my soul
Life's foot prints
My tender scars

Scouring the passage
I find you
The correct key
A simple plug
To drain this
Whirlpool of tears
To banish this
Desert of fears

I gather together
My distorted thoughts
Hoping to assemble
The complete jigsaw
A gateway home
A puzzle door
To freedom within
For all time

Fragments no more
A portal appears
Taking the key,
it opens promptly
Without any hesitation
I step through
Only to discover
..There's another Maze
