creep

Lost in a maze, where the shadows creep, Memories weigh heavy, like secrets I keep, Heart full of sorrow, but I wear a smile, Dancing with the pain, just to mask the trial. Every step I take, echoes in the night, Searching for the light, but it’s out of sight, Voices in my head, whispering my fears, Counting all the blessings, but I’m drowning in tears. Life’s a canvas, painted grey with regret, Chasing after dreams, but I’m caught in the net, Every laugh’s a cover, every hug’s a lie, Pulling at the seams, while I’m learning to fly. Fighting through the storm, but I’m soaked to the bone, Building up my fortress, yet I feel so alone, Words spill like ink, from a heart that’s confined, In this freestyle of sadness, I’m just trying to find.
