I've been stuck inside a maze with no easy way to see and if i could light this fire then just maybe I could leave There are moments when my efforts win down crumbles my borders I'll take a step and then the next moment the path becomes a corner. I don't know how I got here and its scary to believe that I tricked myself to coming making me my own worst enemy I lost all of my memories but I will not forget how it feels to not remember that an outside world exists. Tomorrow's never promised Yesterday has passed haven't kept up with the present and nobody's ever asked the last time i made the rash decision not to think I took all my common sense and I poured it in a drink See I don't know how I got here but one thing is for sure all my thoughts are corrupted but Reality is pure these labyrinth walls whisper but what's really in my ear screams "the only way to exit is to realize you are here"

A poem I wrote in the midst of my psychosis and the peak of my anxiety. Enjoy!
