The Labyrinth

The weeping angels surround us

"count from ten" they say

hold your breath

don't close your eyes

it's quite beautiful, you see

does it hurt?

oh no, my love

much quicker than falling asleep

and here we are!

the Great Perhaps

take one last breath

and let go of the chains

that hold you to this labyrinth of pain

it's a metaphor

don't you see?

this labyrinth of pain 

is all we conceive

its only outside the heavens

that you can believe

Why am I seeing Doctor Who in everything people write lately...Weeping angels and not closing their eyes made me think of it. Haha. Anyways, back to the poem. I love this. Amazing job. :)

Tee hee :) now that I think of it, it actually does seem very Doctor Who-ish!! Maybe I'm just obsessed with the show haha. Anyway, thanks for reading it. You should read some of my other poems, I'd love to get your feedback on them.
