When the Sky is Falling

the maze

here I am

back at the start of the maze

thought for a while

it was just a faze

that this was only temporary

the sickness in my gaze

sadness soaking through my skin

burning third degree

clogging up my throat and mind

and every inch of me

I'll search my world

to cure this disease

with fleeting things

to fill the gap that my life needs

so I gave up everything

to find a reason 

why I'm living

is it even

worth the risk?

to live life so freely

when it all just feels like-

a labyrinth?

I've gone through the maze again

and again

I felt so blind

but learned a lesson

this life is not

 merely for me

not for a high

or a spree

we were placed in this maze for only one thing:

to bow and to serve

at our Lord's gracious knee

and that, my love

is everything.
