Amidst the spiral staircase
Ever onward up and down
Looking glasses come face to face
But I can't describe what I've found
Through the endless jagged hallways
Worn smooth by all my pacing
The difference between now and always
Memory versus mind's erasing
I whisper to once more hear my voice
I choke back sobs when I can't contend
I scream into this void of choice
Of lunacy where I pretend
Raw and broken I stumble sideways
And fall right through another dream
Knees weak I stand to find the pathways
Beneath the Styx and Stygian stream
And Lethe cannot my soul allay
I don't remember, but still repent
Still I mourn some random day
What hasn't passed from me yet
In this maze I endless wander
Wondering what will it take
To no longer have my heart pine yonder
At last this nomad's soul forsake
