[Every Monday (until I run out of them), I’m posting a poem of mine that has fallen out from the submission process for some reason. In most cases, it will be one where I’ve received no response to my submission for at well over a year or more. Maybe the magazine I submitted them to has folded, the submission was lost in the post, or whatever. So, these poems can be seen as lost, orphans, of uncertain status, or something like that.]
These poems are also posted to ABCTales.
Labyrinth
the thread has long since unravelled.
Fallen apart.
Nothing more to be revealed now,
except the darkness and empty spaces.
It is easy to slip,
down into a pale lifetime of only waiting.
Drifting through these contrived passages.
There is no way back.
In the depths of the labyrinth,
once lost, we are forgotten.
We no longer live
inside the memories
of those, far above,
walking the Earth.
