Truth has many shades. It's not a matter of black and white, but many grays.


I am lost.

My life is a labyrinth

And I wander it,

No map,

No compass.

 

I take a left,

A sphinx Blocks the way.

"Answer this riddle of mine,

And you'll live another day."

 

Next I take a right,

An ending tunnel stands there,

Grinning at me,

Taunting.

 

I go back,

From which way have I come?

I am lost.

No map,

No compass.

 

Choices...

Where do I go?

Do I give up,

Should I cry?

Do I even try?

 

I trigger traps,

Pitfalls,

Riddles and tasks.

I make it through.

 

I am lost.

I haven't a map,

Or a compass to guide my way.

But my heart beats night and day.

And my brain learns as I go.

 

Life is a labyrinth.

We're all a little lost.

But...

We will all make it through.
