Impatience

I am locked in a sea of emotion,
Delirious, in search of a key.
I feel there’s a lack of devotion
in my quest. In my search for me.
 
I bomb my way through to the labyrinths.
The mazes bring lumps to my throat.
I speak to the people in Corinth
who walk in a sea of remote.
 
I’m lost and confused through the tunnels.
I search for the right path to take
then liquid starts flowing through funnels
and drench me with blood as I shake.
 
This liquid so red and so evil.
I scream off the top of my lungs.
I choke in this sea of disaster
becing cursed for the things I have done.
 
I rise and I try to face combat,
with no armor or shield to protect
I fight with the skill of a warrior
and the pain I inflict I regret.
 
I defeat the enemy upon me
Each wound drenched in blood tells a tale.
I search deep within for an answer
as to why I am trapped in this jail.
 
But no answer comes out of my larynx.
Not a word does escape from my lips.
I move on to my next fearful challenge
then am lost in a solar eclipse.
 
This darkness, it seems so eternal
there is but a small shed of light
I search in the rear for a doorway
which I hope ends my quest for the night.
 
So blindly I move through the shadows
Each stop that I take seems to burn.
The embers igniting my journey
towards the place where I hope to return.
 
I take the first steps through the doorway
into a world that is very unknown.
Yetsomehow it seems so familar
It feels like the comfort of home.
 
But the creature I fought in the nightmare
just follows behind me once more
It stands with the mask of a demon
still haunting the days of yore.
 
So in anger I pull off the covers
and finally the creature I see.
I stand in a moment of silence as I realize
the creature is me.
