Maze

2007 For Christopher Robin

wandering around in the labriynth that i created

lost in the twists and turns

i didn't see it coming

the maze is expanding

i don't think i can find my way out of here alone

I unbuttoned my head and left my brain back on the third aisle on the right

On a haystack next to the great pumpkin

my heart was checked at the door

It was the start of a grand adventure

a new amazing puzzle world to explore

haystacks and pumpkins goblins and ghouls

In my mind you were just around the next bend

but I lost you too

I think I last caught a glimpse of you on heartbreak alley

ever elusive

There was no ribbon left by the wayside

no clue

your only fault is that you thought  I was smart like you

but i had blinders on of my own making

now i can't find you.

am beside myself in echo canyon

wandering aimlessly without you.
