You do not want to enter this forest
Though I have dwelt here forever,
I still do not know it
Its labyrinthine trails lead in circles
or straight to nowhere
Time does not follow rules here
Minutes last for weeks and yet
years disappear in a second
Sorrow hangs
like a wet wool blanket
from the limbs of trees
which have never seen the sun
You do not want to enter this forest
I am beyond rescue
I have lived so long in darkness
that I have forgotten how to even hope
for light.
