I lost my self in the labyrinth,
In the sunset of some yesterday
And strolled among strangers,
In some unknown far away..
I was weary and kept stumbling over-
- The shadows of the past
Coming back to the moments,
That were not meant to last..
Everyday as I stand infront of the mirror,
A stranger looks back my way
The shadowed eyes and silent lips,
That were not there yesterday..
Passing hours rob my life away..
And the person I was once upon a time..
As I struggle to move on,
To somehow keep up with the ever changing rhyme..
The tears dry on the edge of the eyes,
In re-collection my nights fade away..
For I had once lost myself in the labyrinth,
Of some unknown yesterday..

Writer's block? again! THIS IS INCREDIBLE! Let me just tell you this. You have a talent for making your ending lines amazing. And that's something that is really important. You write them beautifully. I stand in awe.

-awkward capitalization where none is required (or makes sense)
-flow messed up in some places (i.e. the longest line)
Eh, I hate writer's block.
I don't really like most rhyming poems (according to my taste). Nonetheless, well done. At least you didn't butcher the rhyme like others.

i feel terrible when i want to write and there is nothing there. it's frustrating. glad to see you writing
as for the 'labyrinth'... yeah i dwell too much on the past. i get so sad for the good times and keep reliving the bad. for me it's a habit i can't break... you've caught that awful feeling

In life we all get lost in the labyrinth once for a while... and learn to come out of it... This is another heartfelt poem from you Dolly... you are so good with your words... this was packed with emotions...
Though the whole poem was very nicely written but this stanza was the clincher for me and is very poetic;
Everyday as I stand infront of the mirror,
A stranger looks back my way
The shadowed eyes and silent lips,
That were not there yesterday..
I'm glad at least you're writing again... keep it up...
