A Linear Maze of distorted times
A Linear Maze of distorted times
A Linear Maze of distorted times
A repeating cycle of lost lines
I move through walls that twist and breathe,
shadows whispering lies I too believe,
monsters stitched from thought and fear
wait in corners, always near.
And when
I see you.
Small, unknowing, wandering blind,
a version of me from another time
in this labyrinth of the mind.
Still unaware of threat and crime
Your steps are fragile, your gaze unlit,
you do not see the teeth of it.
My heart breaks with the weight of need:
to gather you close, to shield, to lead,
to be the gaurdian you deserve,
a steady hand, a guiding nerve.
The protection i too needed
Looking as blankly as she did
But my own footing slips and shakes,
my voice is drowned by what my thought miss makes.
I cannot lift you while I fall,
cannot build a shelter with no wall.
So I stand, aching, tethered still,
watching you stumble through the chill.
I whisper promises into stone:
when I can hold myself, you won’t be alone.
Wondering if my mom felt so powerless
Watching me as I see you go threw this
But now, I fight to quiet the djinn,
to mend the fractures deep within.
And though I cannot teach you yet,
I unlike her, I will not forget
If a safe pathway can be found
Once im on it you'll hear my sound
You will see my signals calling you to clarity
Ill bring you too the gates before I break free
Ill leave trails and markers
Tall ladders , kind martyrs
Strong tools and cloaks to hide
Ill apologize for every time i lied
Ill give you everything I use
Ill explain every one of my vague clues
I wont leave you alone and uncertain
If I figure out how to remove my own curtain

Can you see past the broken strings and still hear the beauty of the music
