Poetry

My time has arrived, I can stay no more
 
Death has called me to walk the lonely corridor
 
He shall guide me there, my hand in his
 
 I am condemned to wander an unknown land that is
 
Perhaps paradise, but I would soon find out
 
The maze that’s Hell and what lies throughout--
 
I stepped inside the cave, and the entrance was sealed
 
All light quickly died, but an object revealed
 
A black candle and its inextinguishable flame
 
Illuminated a small area outside of its range 
 
With the light provided the surroundings had shown
 
The emptiness of the cavern was instantly known
 
As I wield this candle I walked with a force
 
To journey my eternal prison in search of its source
 
One fork in my path had lead to another
 
Each room inside this hallowed confinement appear like each other
 
Have I been wandering this labyrinth for thousands of years?
 
Am I stuck in this puzzle, trapped inside with my fears?
 
Am I being punished for all my transgressions?
 
This is the outcome, my solemn depression
