Title: This Labyrinth | Submitted by: thephonescaresme | Written by: Sean Reardon | Style: Villanelle

Turn back now, it’s not too late
There stands an aching, elderly tree
This labyrinth is not your fate

Sounds of the woods orchestrate
Desire grows to be set free
Turn back now, it’s not too late

Mouth loses ability to salivate
Night draws in oppressively
This labyrinth is not your fate
The land begins to condensate
And is littered with debris
Turn back now, it’s not too late

To you, the land castigates
And releases terror ferociously
This labyrinth is not your fate

Where’s the light that you anticipate?
Creeping o’er the horizon cautiously
Turn back now, it’s not too late
This labyrinth is not your fate
