In the labyrinth,
You will get lost.
You will get tricked,
Teased,
Poked and prodded.
It has no end,
With its ever changing walls,
While the center always remains the same.
How you get out?
Well, you should have never gone in.
For once you are in,
Time stops.
And you are trapped.

I had to look up what that word mean. This poem has great word choice and a grand ending. I like the feeling of hopelessness it sends
