Maze

I've made change
For better or worse

And I'm amazed
At the time it took

For me to open my eyes
Just in time

To escape the maze
To enjoy my life

Amazing

Labrynthine,
I wander (ed in here),
knowing there is
(a or) no directly
straight way out.

My (abnormal) life is too
(disparagingly) heavy, bogged
(exasperatingly) down with
unwanted (and worrisome)
weight (I desired often)
to be cast (happily) aside.

Lighter, I (judiciously) can
(with precision) see
(the or) a direct way out
of (the or) an excrutiating
maze (that has or) that
gripped my heart's
rhythm and (held
me back or) restrained
me too long.
