    Stealthy Labyrinth

    A Labyrinth of life and living
    Flies by with the passing minutes,
    Striving to leave imprints,
    That are positive in their fleeting

    Flight, that they can’t be bound.
    Imprisoned by labels, categories,
    Races, and groups that astound
    In their versatility, but not humanities.

    I’ve lived in this labyrinth of life,
    Where negativity was the succor
    Given by some of my entourage, that’s rife
    With jealousy, bias, and is a bereaver.

    They suck out the optimism and
    Joy of life out of each stupendous second,
    That you fear drowing in the labyrinth
    Of fiery destruction that steals your breath.

    Instead, let the minutia of the labyrinth
    Turn into an adventurous life in stealth.

    • Your poem captures the nature of life’s difficulties and the struggle to find positivity during the confusion. The metaphor of the labyrinth is very effective in conveying the sense of being lost.
