Confusion

I started down this corridor blindly. I walk though I cannot see, As my vision clears things only get more confusing. I see what is before me but it is as a maze. I go with the path I feel is right. I come to a dead end, I try to retrace my steps. Yet I end up in a place still more bewildering. When I find my way the whole structure changes, I play by rules that are not my own. I’m drawn Trapped I try to break free. Ensnared. Quicksand, I am sinking in quicksand. It’s only a matter of time before the end comes. But wait, I hear a sound Small at first, Distant I hear it drawing closer. Hope is still lingering, Tiny but growing. I see a light. I am lifted. The light shows me where I must go All is restored. I am restored. I am saved.
