Lost in the Labyrinth of Fear
Turning Left Turning Right Just which way should I go? There is no one left to guide me To the ghost that was my home Alone I live with darkened thoughts A path that promises only pain For all I’ve done with good intent Is washed away with the midnight rain Fear is all that’s left behind for me The guilt for every love that I have slain All the goodness that once was in this heart Lost to the mystery of the arcane So tell me why should I remain here? A plague to this place I roam To save my soul I should be freed Still I will always be alone Lost trapped with only fear to guide me The only friend left for me to know While I’m here the world is safe from me So here I’ll stay drowned in red Bordeaux If you enjoyed this poem and would like to read more of my work I currently have two books available that can be obtained through the links below.
