A Maze

By brook_rivers

26 August 2006

I am lost
In a Maze
Of Broken dreams
Every way I turn
There is an obstacle

I can not see
My way out
Or the route
That leads to the heart

I can only see back;
behind me
To the precarious path
The beaten track
On which i have already passed

To the circles
I have walked in
Trying to find myself
trying to find you.

Confession
Written by Phil (7008 comments posted) 26th August 2006

I have to confess, I'm not sure I know how to read serious, modern poetry. However, this piece captures an emotion in time and I liked it.

Hurting and Deep

Brook this is poignant, painful poem and one that screams of need. The need to find direction, to catch a line and draw in, back to a loving heart.

Again the honesty conveyed in your words gives this poem a sudden brutality, a feeling a unbelieavably deep hurt and pain, and that resolution is still out of reach...

It hurt me to read this, but I am also pleased I did, as this is superb.

With best wishes

Mishmish hit the nail on the head here. Brilliantly deep and painful. Well done.

Ouch!

Sorry, just painful to me. The ramblings of a disorganised, confused mind. I think you may be the Spinal Tap of poetry - this is like a pastiche of 1960's hippy psychadelic claptrap.

I'll have a gram of what you're on...
