I am lost in a maze that I built myself.
I put up each wall to remind myself to not go down that path again.
To block the feelings, the people, the thoughts, the actions that took a piece of me.
Each time I felt weaker, but promised myself these walls would help me stay whole.

I built a barrier between me and whatever was taking control of me.
I realized what was happening again, I built another wall.

But now I'm at a dead end. trapped by the walls I thought would protect me. I have no where to go, and only I hold a map to this maze.

I only know how to build, not to take down. I don't want to know what's behind the walls, but I can't stay trapped forever.

the first hit will be the hardest, but maybe ill find the pieces I've lost on the way back to the start.
