Maze



Lost in a endless maze,
Searching for the exit for days,
My mind's at a haze,
Confused as hope strays,
So looking ahead I gaze,
For the ground something lays,
Wondering what it displays,
Will I be sad or amazed,
Towards it, I go to praise,
Hoping that it stays,
Positive things I raise,
Ready to get out of this phase,
That's disguised as a craze,
Changing your thinking ways,
Thoughts are on blaze,
Why is it I who always pays?
With my life in this endless maze.
