The Maze Poem by Janis Land Raymer

Lines...Walls...darkness
Which way? left...right
or-
do I stand still?
The voices...spurred on by my...
fears, medication, fantasies...
Have you ever known fear?
Not of monsters or people-
of YOURSELF.
Fear you're losing control...
of life, your independence
just losing yourself!
Fear of...just losing.
Fear of not trusting your own judgement.
Which way?
Left-Right...
Can I trust myself?
-or-
am I permanently lost
inside myself
inside...
the maze.........
