Labyrinth Poem (Which Ending Is Better?)

in #poetry7 years ago

Decide to go right,
And she'll break your heart.
Choose the way left,
Get torn all apart.
Fight your way up,
You WILL sell your soul.
Make your way down,
Get beat to the goal.
Or possibly north,
Get worked to the bone.
Or maybe it's south,
Then face it alone.
Opt for the east,
That could be the way.
Traverse to the west,
And there you should stay?
The Labyrinth of life,
You'll stagger then run.
Then stagger once more,
Now your time is done.

(Alternate ending)

You will cry that it passed,
Too quickly this time.
Make ALL the right choices,
And you'll be just fine.
Which way do you go?
What path do you take?
Through liars and cheaters,
With scammers and fakes.
A desolate course,
This maze that we roam.
An unfortunate place,
For us to call home.
