#WritingPrompt: unreliable narrator

‘Everything I’ve done / I’ve done for you / I move the stars for no one’ — David Bowie, Within You (Labyrinth Soundtrack)

This is what you asked of me.

You were waiting for a guide
— here I stand,
in the maze of the space
between breaths.

I led where you asked me to.
I led you
to something true.

(The liar here
was never me.)

I led where you asked.
I take no blame
for what you found there.
