Out of This Again

Turning every corner,

Just bringing more confusion.

Does my mind play tricks on me?

Is it just an allusion?

Questions racing through my mind,

How could I have left you behind?

Being selfish has a toll.

You might lose something you thought you had known.

Now sprinting through the eerie maze,

Tears creeping to my eyes.

I know there's no getting out of such trap.

I know the faults are solely mine.

Please don't leave me,

I'm very sorry, friend.

Not any purpose in desperate pleads,

I find myself questioning, am I near the end?

Trapped in the maze,

Brings unsteadiness to the mind.

Losing that faithful gaze,

My foolishness has left it all behind.

I could've had it all,

But then I put myself first.

If I hadn't answered that call,

Where would I find myself today?

I've had plenty of second chances,

But I take advantage of them all.

To realize what I've really got,

Regret seems to call.

What have I gotten myself into?

I've gotten myself way too far in,

And then I face the facts,

There's no getting out of this again.
