the labyrinth

[Blkrubbersoul]

Here's a riddle
a puzzle if you will
I've made a labyrinth
a highly elaborate maze
down one of the corridors
you'll find a wall
with shelves reaching high
stacked with a myriad of glass jars
All sealed tightly shut
with my own bare hands
all containing secrets
What secrets? Secretive secrets
Memories, thoughts, feelings, tears and fears
I hope none of these shelves fall
tipping and spilling precious cargo
If that ever happens
I hope someone special enough
has solved the labyrinth
and all the puzzles
and is there to catch what's falling
with soft hands
Sometimes
All I want to feel
Is love.
