Array ( [sid] => 10557 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => One Phase Of Life [time] => 2003-01-16 23:00:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I have walked into your labrynth
without knowing which way to go,
I would follow my heart
but you have captured it and you tell me no.
So I stand in one spot,
and use my memories to guide me,but now their telling me I have been fought.
Now I rely on my mind,
which tells me to go to the right
now I found that I have been blind.
All the years it has taken me to get this far,
I am stuck in my tracks and my heart is still held in a jar.
I am sick of playing this game,
If only I had people standing behind me
and no one was to blame.
Keep my heart in a jar at the end of this mase,
my soul will soon find it
for this part of my life is only a phase.

When we enter a phase that so totally captures our heart as you have described it seems as though our entire existance was meant for this very purpose. Nice poem and very easy to relate to. Keep up the good work...

I like the way you made the 5th and 6th lines and the 16th and 17th lines deviate from the metre it drove home the points made in the lines
