A Sign

I saw a sign, a sign today,

It said please just go away,

For if you keep walking towards me,

Then in the end, you’ll lose your sanity,

The sign was large but only I could see it,

Flashing bright lights like a Broadway hit,

I tried to walk around but the route was long,

I tried to shout out but I lost my tongue,

I could not go forwards or to the side,

I could not go over or try to hide,

The only thing left was to go back to the start,

So with a big sigh and a weight in my heart,

I worked my way backwards to the beginning,

In the hope that the next path will end with me winning.
