I close my eyes & I begin to dream

Only to be awoken by echoing screams,

A maze of paths & endless patterns

“Holy fuck” how did this happen?

I drift around there’s no way out

Barely can see, I panic & shout

Menacing roars from far ahead

It knows I’m here & it needs to be fed.

I run around it’s a lot to apprehend

Paths lead to nowhere except dead ends,

The pattern is complex, I’m not going to lie

I’m scared I’m lost & I don’t want to die.

Instincts surge and logic appears

I’ll find the centre, everything is clear

I’ll obtain a key to open this door

With the courage to slay a Minotaur.

Starting to wish I listened to my teacher

How did Theseus kill this creature?

No time to think, the roars get closer

I stumble & fall, “shit”

Into the Minotaurs enclosure.

I can feel it with me, I’m fully aware

It’s sizing me up, I feel its stare

Creeping out of the dark into my space

I nearly collapsed it has the same face.

Everything is clear the maze is my head

The fear I carry keeps this monster fed,

I’ve to face myself if I want to be free

I’m the only one that’s holding the key.
