A poem from an 10th grade project of mine for Language Arts.

Life is a mysterious

unsolvable maze

People train in preparation of the mysteries within the maze

They study

They get an education

They exercise

They better themselves

They prepare for the unkown corridors of the big puzzle

turning this way and that way

no escape to be found

only more turns and twists

around every corner

while still attempting to find a way out

They may run into the unexpected

or maybe the expected

Challenges and mysteries

lurking about the maze

which people must face

Survive some they will

others they will not

Skillful and ready for more maze

some enjoy their maze

Others unable to handle it

may leave the maze by accident

or on purpose

by leaving their body

forever trapped in the maze

and arrive in a place unkown to those

who still wander about through their life
