My head in riddles, poisonous snakes latch onto every thought, every feeling, leeching out every essense of purity until I'm left dry in thrist. I feel the pressure of the acids pulsating through every nerve of my living body, slowly torturing, paralyzing me from the inside out. But I can still feel the dim flicker of light, the one feeling, the strongest of them all, hidden the deep in the caverns of my exsistence. I will crawl with my fingernails, with every last breath to reach this light. I will bleed before I allow myself to become paraslysed into darkness. These devious creeping shadows will be cast out, the abundance of light will take over, I will be free. I am ready to step into self liberation.

Self Liberation
My head in riddles, poisonous snakes latch onto every thought, every feeling, leeching out every essense of purity until I'm left dry in thrist. I feel the pressure of the acids pulsating through every nerve of my living body, slowly torturing, paralyzing me from the inside out. But I can still feel the dim flicker of light, the one feeling, the strongest of them all, hidden the deep in the caverns of my exsistence. I will crawl with my fingernails, with every last breath to reach this light. I will bleed before I allow myself to become paraslysed into darkness. These devious creeping shadows will be cast out, the abundance of light will take over, I will be free. I am ready to step into self liberation.
