Mazes of the Mind

Mazes of the Mind

Billions of neurons encapsulate my mind.
Complex memories have no place to hide.
Flashback brings my first love to life.
I can see the first time his eyes met mine.
And feel him smiling back at me.
I was fifteen and fell in love instantly.
Thirty years, I still sense his scent.
Bittersweet memory for my love is gone.
The mazes of my mind play tricks on me.
Treasured memories buried deep within.
Taking me to a place I once was, and yet can’t be.
The mazes of my mind that erases time-
With just a blink of an eye.
