Stuck In My Head (2023)

I move my left foot forward,
Then the right.
Walking down this trail.
No one else in sight for miles.

I keep walking down this narrow path.
All around me are tall hedges.
So thick and dense.
Almost feels claustrophobic in a sense.

My mind begins to wonder.
To how I got here,
Then to the time before this maze.
But all I seem to remember is a haze.

I keep going.
Even though this pathway seems everlasting.
Never changing.
And feels rather draining.

Will I ever make it out of here?
Or will this hedge consume me?
Maybe that’s for the best,
So I can finally rest.

This mind of mine.
A never ending maze.
Lost to the depths of my emotions.
Leading my life to erosion.

Prompt: Twitchel
A narrow path between hedges.
